Green Building through Integrated Design Gets Accolades from Architectural Record
Jerry Yudelson’s most recent book gets high accolades from Architectural Record’s book reviewer. Of three books reviewed on integrated design for green buildings, the reviewer cites Yudelson’s book at the “meatiest” in content and most suitable for working architects, engineers and builders.
To quote from the review, “Tucson, Arizona—based engineer Jerry Yudelson offers Green Building Through Integrated Design as a practice manual, packed with actionable information and showing the design process from many professional points of view. In lengthy quotes from architects, engineers, and building owners, he gives firsthand accounts of innovative teamwork. In this, the meatiest of the three books, the author specifies the characteristics of high-performance buildings, explains LEED categories in detail, and offers no-nonsense descriptions of collaboration at each design phase. Uniquely qualified, with degrees in both engineering and business administration, and a nationally recognized expert in green design, Yudelson describes the barriers perceived by clients and presents a business case for building green. The book includes an extraordinary, 400-item list of questions to consider at successive design phases.”

This is great, is there anywhere I can get hold of the book with 400 item list inside?
