Green Construction: An Introduction to a Changing Industry

Weak book. Very short on useful knowledge. I’m learning very little. It’s full of common general knowledge. Useless to me.

This book is a much-needed treasure. Dykstra has managed to weave context, civics, and content of green construction into a single and accessible resource. The breadth and quality of the materials presented in this text is a testament to the author's deep understanding of both the work at large and the needs of educators and practitioners alike to facilitate the responsible growth of the field. Interested in learning or teaching green construction? There's finally a clear place to begin.

I have been involved with many small constrcution jobs at home and work. I always want to be as "green as possible, but was not sure how. A friend recommended this book and it's terrific....clearly wirtten, well organized, comprehensive and answered all my questions...a huge help...

Exactly the book needed for class

Easy to read and understand. Excellent how to book.
