Rating:  Summary: An amazing resource. Review: The one-star reviewer is right -- it's all pictures. Perfect! Who needs text when you've got all this incredible visual material? (And I found what little text there is to be well written and informative.)I like the format, which includes a feature-specific gallery up front, then case studies organized by country, with useful thumbnails at the start of each section. It's like a continent-hopping parade of homes. I LOVE this book.
Rating:  Summary: Where are the 500 solutions the title promises? Review: We live in a house on a lake but just bought a St. Louis apartment for weekends, and this book sounded perfect for what I want. I got it home and was so disappointed. I don't know know where the "500 solutions for living" are. This is a pretty picture book but it doesn't have much to say. More than a handful of words would have been nice. Don't buy this.
