Do you own a healthy house? : Handbook for Consulting Engineers Property Managers and Building Owners

Houses were once thought to be a blessing to humans. Despite the fact that many people at the time did not have their own shelters. Nowadays the vast majority of people have their own place to live. Our standard of living has also increased significantly. Those gifted dwellings were truly gifted in the past and such organic structures did not harm the residents! Modern houses on the other hand endanger the health of those who live in them. People are spending more time inside their homes now that we have so many options for entertainment thanks to modern gadgets. Humans are also being forced to stay at home due to pandemics such as COVID-19.  ***** Here is Mr Suresh Lal coming up with a book with a difference. ‘Do you own a healthy house’ is a book that gives you enough and a little more focused information on housing? To call it a book will be stating a truism. This is a signpost for those who tread the path of housing.   With his vast experience and empirical knowledge the author is now able to identify the pitfalls in housing particularly construction and maintenance and suggests ways and means of avoiding falling in those pits.   To call it a book on housing may be stating a half-truth. This is more about the home than the house. A house becomes home when it has a soul.   -  Dr. CV Ananda Bose
