The Power House is more than a book, it's an instruction kit for building a sustainable energy house - that you actually build and test. The kit comes with 20+ technologies that you assemble and experiment with. "Build, heat, cool & illuminate an energy efficient house. Develop food & water preparation methods and new transportation. The manual is organized around the story of a group of island dwellers who must learn to live sustainably using the resources available to them on their small island. As you read their journal entries and learn of their projects and experiments, you build models of the same projects and conduct the same experiments alongside them.". For kids (12+) and adults. In addition to the kit materials the included manual has 96 pages, see more here. Via re-nest.
