The book is a worthy second edition, presenting the reader with a restructured and retooled discussion about climate change, the substantial risks it poses to communities across the world, and the potential negative impacts it can have on these communities, while emphasizing the central role played by buildings and communities. Hazem Rashed-Ali, SBSE News This is a real must-have on the shelf of all who are either involved or consulted on building design for the future and is a well-researched book written by someone who has a true passion for saving the planet. Graham Shone, Building Engineer About the first edition: 'A timely and fascinating book on the crucial issue of energy use in buildings which accounts for half of our total energy use.' Stephen Tindale, Executive Director, Greenpeace, UK
