It is a shame that the reviewer concludes, in his usual robust style, that the book lacks technical detail. It seems to be more a case of not finding some details that are in fact there or having a different view on what is important. According to the foreword by Professor Jacqueline Glass, the book is 'very much written with the designer in mind' and 'sets out a practical and up to date manifesto for the design engineer' for sustainable design and specification using concrete. Technical detail to help achieve this is included in the book and its references.
