Hardcover. Condition: As New. Throughout the developing world the transition form fuelwood to commercial fuels is one of the least understood parts of the energy puzzle. This may be because until fairly recently this transition did not pose major policy problems. Before 1973 cheap petroleum products could substitute for fuelwood thus relieving pressure on forest resources. Since then however sharply rising oil import bills have called into question the feasibility of this substitution process and revived concern about deforestation. Consequently the interaction of demand among traditional and commercial fuels has assumed major policy importance. 124 pp.
