Book Description
This book provides a critical examination of all aspects of modern energy production. The second edition has increased emphasis on those issues at the forefront of the current energy debate: energy sustainability, climate change, de-regulation of the power industry. It is especially useful as a textbook for undergraduate programs in Science, Technology and Society, and as a supplementary text in all courses which touch upon energy studies.
