Actual how-to of bamboo

Finally found a textbook that not only dives into the principles and concepts of using bamboo to build structures, but also gives detailed step by step instructions and diagrams that are easy to understand. This book is mainly written for artists who dabble in architecture, however it is just as easy to read and understand for general contractors who dabble in art. The average person whose neighbor planted bamboo years ago but won’t manage it will find countless ways to improve his outdoor area and indoor decorations too. It does briefly glance over how to treat and manage bamboo but that’s okay because the subject is beat to death in every other book of bamboo.
