PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
The contents reflect the work of the Building Conservation and Research Team, their colleagues at Historic England, and their consultants and researchers, who together have many decades of accumulated experience in dealing with deteriorating building materials and systems of all types. This multi-disciplinary team of architects, surveyors, conservators and scientists are responsible for standard setting and research across a wide range of Historic England activities. The team specialises in dealing with the practical, technical and scientific aspects of building materials decay and their treatment. The aim has been to provide practical advice by advocating a common approach of firstly understanding the material or building element and why it is deteriorating, and then dealing with the causes. The books concentrate on those aspects which are significant in conservation terms, and reflect the requests for information received by Historic England.

Context The book is beautifully organized, illustrated, formatted, and a pleasure to read. The ten-book series is without a doubt the most comprehensive text in the field of building conservation ... [Building Environment] handsomely describes building environments and their impacts on performance. It captures the process of building conservation at an important moment. It sets the stage for new developments. - William B. Rose, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
