Permaculture theory and practice

I want to build a Hyperadobe home. I have seen many YouTube videos about the process, but I want to know way more than a few videos can teach me.

Does anyone have any book suggestions? I searched eBay and Amazon and found almost nothing.

The Hyperadobe bags are UV coated, so you have WAY longer to build your house. The other sand bags fall apart in less than 1 year in the hot desert sun. Lots of people I talk with really regret using the little sand bags.

I did watch a lot of tiny shiny home, but they do leave out a lot and their videos are just too long and too many to keep up. They also have workshops in person but they charge so much to go there.
