one of the reviews on Amazon for the "Passive Annual Heat Storage" book ends as follows
Quote:
... So, I cannot express my contempt for Hait's writing any stronger without getting obscene (one reason I had to work with an engineer is that it is practically impossible to figure out the details from Hait's book only), but I cannot find an alternative. And so here we have information that is invaluable, written by someone who couldn't explain how to open a can of beer. That is the [ultimate] frustration.
I also agree that the book is not as good as it could and should be but it is the only one on the topic I can find so I hope to write my own book on the topic but unlike Hiat, I do not have a building made to prove my improved versions actually work SO I will also try to build my prototype buildings as I write my book and use such to provide lots of pictures of each step of the way.
