About this product

Product Information

Addressing the sustainable energy crisis in an objective manner, this enlightening book analyzes the relevant numbers and organizes a plan for change on both a personal level and an international scale--for Europe, the United States, and the world. In case study format, this informative reference answers questions surrounding nuclear energy, the potential of sustainable fossil fuels, and the possibilities of sharing renewable power with foreign countries. While underlining the difficulty of minimizing consumption, the tone remains positive as it debunks misinformation and clearly explains the calculations of expenditure per person to encourage people to make individual changes that will benefit the world at large.

    Item is in perfect condition! It is exactly as described in the description/photos. The seller was incredibly prompt with postage (I am genuinely surprised how fast it arrived!). Postage costs were fair. Item was packaged thoroughly and there was not a hint of damage whilst it made its way to me. Very impressed, item was of fair value given it's rarity and I would recommend in this seller again.

    Excellent transaction. Great copy of The Forbidden Holiday by Olive Dougan exactly as described. It was sold for a very reasonable price, safely and securely packed, sent and received amazingly quickly. (Arrived the day after I placed my order, couldn't have been quicker.) All good!

  • An excellent read on what can be a difficult subject to explain properly.

    Excellent book which quantifies many energy issues which are normally just broad-brushed. It should be a compulsory read for any aspiring politician, and for all of those we are lumbered with now, especially in the UK and USA. It's a shame that David MacKay is no longer with us, but this book is a great memorial to him. Available free as a PDF, but the paper version is nice to have and I bought it to give to unbelievers.

  • It should be made mandatory reading for all Members of Parliament.

    It states the facts of trying to solve the energy crisis, clearly with no political waffle, Just easy to understand the magnitude of the problem.
