This approach to lowering energy consumption via integrated measures (both passive and active) offers a nuanced perspective on managing building efficiency ? that energy saving is not a target in itself but results as a consequence of the architectural concept. The book does not provide calculations or levels of performance. Rather, by sticking to qualitative principles of architectural design and analyzing and using the force and laws of nature in shaping the built space, the author argues for decreasing energy consumption through the process of design, the principles of building physics, the volume of the building itself, and spatial configuration as it relates to the costs of operating the building. This approach contrasts the traditional construction system of only providing a thermal insulated ?blanket? over the envelope and equipment that produces energy from unconventional sources, which can be calculated according to regulations. Amidst the current discourse on sustainability and energy efficiency, this book offers a thought-provoking read for professionals in architecture, civil engineering, and construction, as well as graduate students in related courses. It presents an architect's approach to nearly zero-emission building design, analyses architectural strategies that efficiently use energy in buildings, and examines famous buildings and their innovative design as examples of good practice.

This trend has the potential to fundamentally change people's relationship with their bodies and biology but it also creates new cultural narratives of responsibility, authority, and differentiation. Covering a broad range of examples, this book explores practices and representations of biohacking in popular culture, discussing their ambiguous position between empowerment and requirement, promise and prescription. 410 0$aAmerican Culture Studies 517 2 $aGrewe-Salfeld, Biohacking, Bodies and Do-It-Yourself$eThe Cultural Politics of Hacking Life Itself 606 $aCulture 606 $aRepresentation 606 $aBiology 606 $aMedicine 606 $aBiocultures 606 $aBiohacking 606 $aBiotechnology 606 $aCultural Narratives 606 $aDIY 606 $aAmerica 606 $aBody 606 $aBiopolitics 606 $aAmerican Studies 606 $aLife Sciences 606 $aCultural Studies 615 4$aCulture 615 4$aRepresentation 615 4$aBiology 615 4$aMedicine 615 4$aBiocultures 615 4$aBiohacking 615 4$aBiotechnology 615 4$aCultural Narratives 615 4$aDIY 615 4$aAmerica 615 4$aBody 615 4$aBiopolitics 615 4$aAmerican Studies 615 4$aLife Sciences 615 4$aCultural Studies 676 $a613 700 $aGrewe-Salfeld$b Mirjam$p
