Everyone:

Just published--you'll want to get this book on cold climate
construction. Builder's Guide for Cold Climate--available at Building
Science Corporation's new web site, <http://www.buildingscience.com/>

I especially like the way he ties physics directly to each application.

Lots to digest in the areas of heat flow, moisture flow and air flow
through building envelopes and the interrelationships of people, the
building and the environment. I intend to use this as a textbook, and
wonder if any others will do so.

GBList contributor Terry Brennan is recognized for his input.
Hope EBN and Energy Source Builder will review this valuable book.
