Highly informative and quite interesting  5 Stars
October 12, 2001
Extremely informative book on the planning, design, construction, and renovation of high-tech laboratories. Very thorough; covers academic, government, and private industry labs and the specific needs of each. Excellent photos and drawings; the material is presented in a way that makes it easily understood by non-architects.
