by L.D. Danny Harvey

www.earthscan.co.uk/?tabid=1096

This comprehensive textbook begins with an explanation of global warming, which serves as the justification for the chapters on energy efficiency that follow. These chapters cover everything from insulation strategies and passive solar design to energy efficient appliances and cogeneration strategies. Although the book focuses mainly on low-energy buildings, rather than district-energy systems, it serves as a comprehensive and well-informed introduction to the topic.
