Anyone have Sustainable Timber Design: Construction for 21st Century Architecture? -written by Micheal Dickson and Dave Parker

Was wondering if it was a good book for engineering or if it just mainly involved architecture.
 
I guess you already have looked at the demo at amazon? (contents)

It looks interesting to me, I just wished it wouldn't have had the part with the trees anatomy. Every timber construction book ever made has that part.

It looks more made for architectures than designers. Can still be interesting reading though.
