"Focusing on a handful of leading green building standards…Rider provides a succinct summary of each with a breezy pace and no-nonsense tone. One of the founders of Emerging Green Builders, Rider is uniquely suited to speak to—as well as for—young green professionals….The compact landscape format fits snugly between your palms and makes a perfect desk reference. Whether you’re young or old, keep a copy close at hand." -- Lance Hosey - Architect Magazine
"[A] handy, easy to use book that can be used by students, teachers, and practitioners as their first source of information on green guidelines….With no-fuss, easy vernacular, it explains the rating systems in a way that is easy for the reader to understand the system requirements and how to go about fulfilling them." -- Facilities
"[A] welcome addition to any architecture library." -- Sarah Christensen, Visual Resources Collection, Wellesley College - ARLIS/NA
