This book by building science expert Allison A. Bailes III, PhD lays out the basic science of buildings. When it comes to how houses perform, professionals and homeowners alike believe many things that just aren’t true.

This book explodes the myths, misinformation, and plain old nonsense that pervades the world of home building, remodeling, maintenance, and operation.  But it doesn't stop there.  It provides concrete advice on how to design, build, improve, and live in homes that are healthy, comfortable, energy efficient, and durable.

Whether you're an experienced professional, new worker, student, or someone who lives in a home, this book has something for you.  From indoor air quality to building enclosure control layers to heating and cooling to hot water, Dr. Bailes has covered the breadth of residential building science.
