"All the contributors in this book have rich knowledge and working experiences in professions closely related to green buildings. Their views are profound and thought-provoking. Both best practices and lessons learnt from the implementation of green building laws or policies can be found. This book is a good textbook for governments who plan to drive their building sector into a greener development model. The most valuable contribution of this book is that it is not just a list of the laws which are applied in the world. Scholars also reveal the barriers and research gap of green building laws in their countries."Construction Management and Economics
