The references into four separate bibliographies, each directed to a specific audience: readings for teachers; readings for students (grades 8-12); readings for students (grades 5-9); and readings for students (grades K-6) have been divided. There is however, a great deal of overlap between these listings; teachers may well find references for their own use on the student bibliographies and students, depending on their reading level, may well find suitable references on the teacher or other grade level lists. In general most books and articles should be available in school or public libraries. Each bibliography is divided into the following sections: basic general references; energy fundamentals (basic science topics); energy resources (fossil and nuclear fuels); electric power; energy into power (conversion mechanics and machines); supply and demand (fuel supplies vs consumption); nuclear power; environmental effects (air pollution, thermal pollution, land reclamation, etc.); future energy sources (solar, geothermal, fuel cells, etc.); energy conservation; energy policy (economics, politics and social implications). Additional materials are provided in the four appendices.
