The citation continues: "Their approach covers both building component and design output. As a summative product of this research The ZEDbook records about 10 years of development from 'Bedzed' onwards looking at the building physics and the component elements of a range of projects. The ZEDbook is clearly written, well illustrated and referenced and allows the reader to dip in to specific subject areas. The book presents a body of work that has served the profession and the cause of sustainability extremely well."
