The Broken Promise of Our Buildings and the Fight for the Air We Breathe.
We build structures to protect us from the elements and keep predators out, but somewhere along the way, we broke the bargain. In our obsession with energy efficiency, cost and speed, we forgot the mammal inside the box.
The Time Thief calls out the "not my job, mate" culture of the construction industry, the gaslighting of tenants blamed for black mould, and the dangerous pursuit of targets that ignore human lungs. Drawing on over 100 conversations with the world’s leading building scientists, engineers, and medical professionals, this book translates complex physics into plain English.
