### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Fantastic introduction and overview of NZED
  

*by E***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2013*

This book's greatest strength is in it's comprehensive and detailed presentation of the foundation of NZED-- more so because the author didn't use 500 pages to accomplish this task.I've read this book cover to cover but because it is comprehensive and some of the areas of NZED are not very familiar I find myself reading it again and absorbing more with each pass. Despite having the book in hard cover format I also purchase the kindle version so I can reference many of the excellent charts and figures, found through the book.This may have been written primarily for architects but it is would be very informative for anyone involved sustainable building design and construction.

    A good intro or review of recent energy efficiency strategies. A bit rudimentary, and a bit self-promoting.
  

*by B***Y on Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2015*

This book is a good starting point for someone just starting to dip their toe in the topic of energy efficient design, and an excellent snapshot of a point in time in the pursuit and promotion of net zero design.  It packs in a huge number of topics, which is both a positive and a negative.  As a jumping off point, to make the reader aware of many different technologies and strategies, this is an excellent resource.  Where it's not so great is on any in-depth investigation of any of those technologies.  It's a little bit scatter-shot in its approach.  For instance in the chapter introducing energy efficient building systems it jumps ahead to a fairly involved discussion of DC micro-grids early in the chapter, long before it covers the basics of conventional systems.  In using this in a teaching situation I found that the students needed a lot of additional basic information in order to understand what a DC micro-grid is, and what the conventional technology is, in order to understand why this would be beneficial.  On the other hand, when covering the material of this book with an audience mostly made up of seasoned design professionals a great deal of the material was received as old-hat and very cursory.  So it's difficult to pin-point who exactly this book is geared toward. It might be useful for young professionals with an architecture or engineering education but little experience - especially those studying for licensing exams.  It also might be a good review for those who are a few years out of touch with the latest green technologies - although at this point this book is already a little long in the tooth on that front.The book contains many examples of energy efficient buildings and communities - I don't want to give the impression that it is solely a vehicle to promote one particular project.  However, it does focus rather heavily on one particular building in Colorado, on which the author was one of the designers.  This got a bit repetitive, and at times I didn't think this project was by any means the best example of the point that it was being used to illustrate.  Sometimes it did seem that the author was stretching to use yet another photograph of this one project to illustrate the topic at hand, and that this was done at the expense both of clarity and of more worthy examples.It's a book that was worth reading, but not one I'm likely to return to as a resource, and also not one that's likely to stay relevant for long.  In that sense it's one that I might have been better off borrowing from a library than purchasing.
