Healthy Living Spaces: Top 10 Hazards Affecting Your Health

This book is short and to the point, informational, educational and packed full of well-researched and not so well-known facts about things in our homes that could be detrimental to our health. Every chapter is well-organized: how to detect or find the problem, how to fix it (most solutions are "do-it-yourself" ones) and resources are listed at the end of each chapter. This little book has substance and the author doesn't waste your time with a lot of babbling about stuff you already know. We're all aware that environmental toxins are bad for us. This book tells us how to find them and how to get rid of them ! It's a quick read (easily read in one sitting) and yet covers the major topics like mold, dust, gas, wiring errors (that can cause elevated exposure to electromagnetic fields), remodeling, new house smell, ductwork, crawlspaces, ceiling cavities and more. As another reviewer pointed out, editing of this book was weak but the valuable information herein more than makes up for the annoyance of poor grammar or a few mispelled words.

Dan's book came in my Christmas stocking and was one of the best gifts ever. I have been suffering (daily) from allergies that started almost a year ago in April. Patch tests reveiled varying levels of sensitivity to all of the 48 things tested (pollens, pet dander, dust, mold ...). I can't begin to tell you about the long list of medical (traditional and non-)treatments that I've tried or am trying. I will tell you that I am taking Dan's advise very seriously and slowly removing the hazards from the place I go to for santuary -my home! Had I begun this process last April (as a first on the list of things to do to make myself healthy again) my home would be a santuary.

I recommend this book. I am an Indoor Environmental Professional. I was surprised at how much I learned from this book. I am going to include it in the suggested reading section of every report I write for home and building owners. Americans are concerned about excercise and what we eat, yet we spend 90% of our time indoors and do not think much about indoor air quality. Thanks Mr. Stih for your consideration for those of us who breathe.

Excellent guidelines for key issues effecting the environmentally sensitive or those who just care about their health. Daniel gives you the straight scoop on what steps you need to take or avoid in order to eradicate mold. Planning on doing some renovations, redecorating or building?... Make sure to read this book first! There is so much to learn here about airborne toxins from things like gas; mold, chemical off-gassing, dust, cleaning supplies, pesticides and perfume. He also has chapters on miscellaneous but important details such as healthy lighting and wiring, etc. What I really love is that all of this technical information is presented in a very friendly and accessible way. However, when I mentioned this book to a certified environmental inspector he agreed it was terrific too. Most important of all, however, is that Daniel offers great solutions to all challenges discussed. Therefore, it doesn't feel alarming, it feels empowering. One last thing I wanted to mention is that I appreciate that the type was nice and big which was very easy on my eyes.
