Book excerpt: If you are thinking about building a new home & think you may like living in the round, then this book is for you. Written from first hand experience, two of the authors each live in a dome home. The third author, in the business of remodeling conventional type homes, responded to the distress call during the building of a dome. The result: a very informative book, easy & delightful to read. Aside from a very brief history of domes as residences & a comparative description of the three primary modern dome types, the focus of the book is the Monolithic Dome: its characteristics, basic construction, choices in shapes, exterior design elements. The remaining chapters cover the equally practical considerations on architects, contractors & contracting, building in a rural area, financing & insurance. Tips & red alerts are sprinkled throughout the book. This book is a one-stop introduction to essential considerations to arm the reader before, not after the fact, with information & suggestions. The text is amply referenced & illustated.
