People spends 90 per cent of their time indoors but until recent years, it's been mostly in buildings that can make them sick. When you build your dream home, why not use natural materials, that don't off-gas harmful fumes and make you lethargic, listless or worse. This American book is the 'bible' for people wanting to design their home to minimise unhealthy materials. Not all materials here are available in Australia but many suppliers are listed and have Australian equivalents. An essential guide for anyone serious about a natural home. 314 pages.
