Reviews

Makes an excellent case for the effect of the 'bioburden' on the problems of indoor air quality and morbidity . . . . Very well illustrated with remarkable photographs . . . . One comes away from this book with a very real appreciation of biologic hazards in the indoor living space and the role that building design and ventilation engineering have in fostering or eliminating these hazards. --New England Journal of Medicine Architectural Design and Indoor Microbial Pollution addresses the problems of construction and its relation to indoor microbial pollution. It presents and interdisciplinary exploration of the effects of modern, energy-efficient architecture on levels of microbial contamination in air and water supplies . . . . An authoritative resource for assuring consumers health and safety in buildings. --Pollution Engineering
