When it comes to designing, building, and operating a green building, do you know the right questions to ask -- and when? Here's the information architects, designers, building owners, and facility managers have been waiting for -- all packaged in one handy three-ring binder. Co-authored by green-building consultants Jerry Yudelson and Alan Whitson, the book offers a road map to optimizing your design for maximum sustainability at minimum costs. A must-read for those seeking LEED certification for their building projects.

The book is organized into four parts:

• A rundown of the strategies, tools, and techniques that disprove the myth that green building costs too much
  
• A set of 365 questions laid out in the sequence of your project's timeline. Each question is cross-referenced to project type and the categories of Site, Water, Energy, Materials, Human Factors, and Process
  
• A resource listing of organizations, books, publications, and Web sites to help you quickly find valuable sources of green building information
  
• A workbook section, which allows the reader to keep notes and ideas for green building projects, as well as maintain preliminary LEED scorecards

Cost is $89.95. Order the book online.
