Table of ContentsReviewsWhen They Hid the Fire is an important historical study that helps us understand how the electric power system- a key element of modern society's infrastructure- became invisible. The unseen nature of electricity has had profound policy implications because consumers generally have no idea that power production often results in serious environmental degradation. This book forces readers to confront their history and to think about how their energy futures might need to change. -Richard F.
