Reviews
'This is an excellent text, covering all the actual and potential sources of renewable energy. The writing is clear and the many excellent diagrams and illustrations complement the written word. Where the treatment is necessarily theoretical the level is appropriate and the argument laid outin separate text. This book will be highly relevant to any undergraduate studying this important field.'Aslib Book Guide, vol.61, no.10, October 1996, '...an excellent and timely primer...the book strikes an admirable balance between making the principles underlying the renewables as understandable as possible and endeavouring not to oversimplify important technological and economic aspects.'Resurgence, April 1997, 'This is an outstanding undergraduate textbook which deserves to become the standard text. I can only urge all those who are teaching courses in the field and all students, formal or otherwise, to read and treasure this book'. Professor Robert Hill, Times Higher Education Supplement, review of the first edition of Renewable Energy., 'Review from previous edition It is high time that good textbooks on thesubject become available on the market. Renewable Energy: Power for aSustainable Future, is thus a timely and welcome addition to the existingliterture on the subject...Godfrey Boyle and his team of authors have, in myview, managed to produce an outstanding textbook in which a wealth ofinformation, including an extensive amount of data, is presented in a lucid andcomprehensible form.'The Journal of Energy Literature, March 1997, 'It is readily accessible to readers with a wide range of interests and abilities because the complex scientific explanations are presented separately from the main text ... the authors have presented the questions that must be considered. The book contains a wealth of information and ishighly recommended for anyone with an interest in renewable energy technologies and their possible role in our future.'Nicola Pearsall, Chemistry and Industry, October 1996, 'This book has been produced by a large, expert course team who have carefully researched the area and presented much up to date information. The book is very user-friendly, having many valuable figures, tables and boxes. There are plentiful suggestions for further reading, and students areguided towards key papers in a range of journals.'Paul Phillips, Education in Chemistry, May 1997, '... an excellent and timely primer... the book strikes an admirable balance between making the prinicples underlying the renewables as understandable as possible and endeavouring not to oversimplify important technological and economic aspects.'Resurgence, April 1997, "'This is an excellent introductory text which deserves the widest readership'.

Synopsis
The need to produce clean, sustainable power from renewable energy sources is now a worldwide concern. Renewable Energy provides a comprehensive overview of the principal renewable energy sources available today. For each one, it explains the underlying physical and technological principles, and examines environmental impacts and future prospects. This new edition has been carefully updated to include recent advances in renewable energy technology and to reflect increasing concerns over the environmental impact and sustainability of conventional fossil and nuclear fuel use., Stimulated by recent technological developments and increasing concern over the sustainability and environmental impact of conventional fuel usage, the prospect of producing clean, sustainable power in substantial quantities from renewable energy sources arouses interest world-wide. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the principal types of renewable energy-including solar, thermal photovoltaics, bioenergy, hydro, tidal, wind, wave, and geothermal. In addition, the text explains the underlying physical and technological principles of renewable energy and examines the environmental impact and future prospects of different energy sources. It includes over 350 detailed illustrations, more than fifty tables of data, and a wide range of case studies. Renewable Energy, 2/e is ideal for undergraduate courses in energy, sustainable development, and environmental science., The prospect of producing clean, sustainable power in substantial quantities from renewable energy sources is now arousing interest world-wide, stimulated by recent technological developments that have improved the cost-effectiveness of many of the 'renewables' and by increasing concern over the environmental impact and sustainability of conventional fossil and nuclear fuel use. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the principal renewable energy sources including: · Solar thermal · Photovoltaics · Bioenergy · Hydro · Tidal · Wind · Wave · Geothermal With the aid of over 350 detailed illustrations, more than 50 tables of data and a wide range of case studies it explains, for each source, the underlying physical and technological principles, and examines its environmental impact and future prospects. The overall approach is interdisciplinary, covering the economic, social, environmental and policy issues raised by renewable energy as well as the physical and engineering aspects. The book will therefore appeal strongly to non-specialist readers who wish to improve their understanding of this complex, fascinating and increasingly important subject.

- v***v (2081)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
