| Reviews |
"This reviewer was impressed with the authors' objectivity in their resource selection, given that they are dealing with high-profile subject matter...Recommended. Lower-level undergraduates and general readers." - Choice
|
"The handbook would provide a good starting point for research by high school and college students or others approaching the topic for the first time. While no one particular aspect of renewable and alternative energy is addressed in great detail, this source does a good job of identifying and explaining the range of technologies and the variety of policy measures that can help them succeed. The inclusion of the current state of alternative and renewable energy, along with statistical data, from countries around the world, contributes to the value as a single source of coverage on renewable and alternative energy resources." - ARBA
