I am kinda sorta reading this as research for a course I'm designing about Sustainability. I struggle with non-fiction and reading things I'm meant to especially when I don't really need to and should be reading other things..so I'm not reading it as often as I'd like to...but it's very interesting.

Oddly, there are quite a large number of typographical errors in this book. Despite this, it is almost as good as Design for the Real World, and it sits right next door on my bookshelf. Another must read for designers and architects.
