Recenzii
"This book is brilliantly conceived and well needed internationally. Up to now the focus has been on individual sustainable building - a book of this scope dealing with the infrastructure on which most of them will depend for the foreseeable future is long overdue."
George Baird, professor, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand
"This book is a comprehensive guide to the unique challenges associated with planning, design, construction, operation, and eventual decommissioning of the complex infrastructure systems that are essential to sustaining civilization. It is a useful reference for industry professionals and government officials, as well as a valuable framework for continued academic research."
Thomas Vautin, associate vice president for Facilities and Environmental Services, Harvard University
