E-Book Overview
I had high hopes for this book, written as it was by a professional in the building industry. However, I found it rather basic, and the observations rather obvious. For anyone already aware of and invested in the myriad opportunities and strategies to "green" the workplace, this is a good book to hand to the client, but one to pass on for your own library.
