I've heard great things about Building Science books for building in various climates. How do I determine which book is right for me? I'll be building in upstate SC, zone 7b. I'm not sure if that's considered 'hot-humid', or 'mixed-humid'. I'd rather not buy more than one $45 book if I can help it! Thanks.

Thanks, Chris. I was looking for something like that, but don't know their website very well. Those primers are pretty interesting on their own, without buying the book!
