Reviews

From the reviews: I really enjoyed the book and its factual approach to this delicate and controversial topic. ... I like the book; I like the author's open and honest approach, his competence and his rigorous summaries of a global problem that concern us all. I would recommend reading it before voting for any topic related to the energy problem on our planet. (Antonella Del Rosso, CERN Courier, March, 2013)
