The authors draw on years of writing about energy and environmental issues to give readers an up-to-date approach to major public policies and to help them recognize that energy problems and challenges are likely to be enduring rather than transitory. They show how closely energy is related to other areas, such as general economic, environmental, and foreign policy, with explanations of economic principles governing energy use and supply, basic geology, and selected technological problems. An extensive glossary and conversion tables will also be of help to the reader. Bibliographical notes and suggestions for further reading appear at the end of each chapter. 25 figures, 20 tables.
