As an Information Technology Sustainability Consultant, I must say this title and its subject matter is timely, not to cumbersome, and an enjoyable concise read. Smart building systems and technology go hand-in-hand with creating a greener more sustainable environment, and achieving even the most minimum levels of a low carbon environment will require the utilization of smart building systems. James Sinopoli captures this emerging trend eloquently in "Smart Buildings". By providing the reader with "real world" advice on designing, building, as well as managing high performance building systems, this title facilitates the necessary tool kit needed to accurately assess the costs as well as the benefits of investing in smart building technology. If your looking to get a current view of the emerging "Smart Building" landscape....I highly recommend giving this book a read....it has already helped me tremendously!!!!
