      abstract = {This book reviews the building renovation process by  systematizing the phases of analysis and prior knowledge  through a project that not only considers energy savings  but also thoroughly examines complex issues, such as  defining the correct new functions and answers to new  needs. The urgency of climate change and the many problems  associated with the excessive use of energy are forcing a  reorganization of the renovation process with an interest  in reusing existing buildings with a more sustainable  approach. The adaptive transformation of old buildings has  become a dominant theme in many urban renewal projects. It  must necessarily include strategies for energy efficiency,  reduced pollutant emissions, improved environmental  performance, economic sustainability and cultural identity.  The examples selected are intended to provide evidence of  good practices in the review and transformation of old  buildings.},
