| Publisher Description: Information and problems related to fossil fuels and the environment are described in this all-inclusive book. Geopolitics has been continuously shaped by fossil fuel and even today, the world is facing an energy crisis. As a result, the world is witnessing a shift towards alternate, profitable methods of energy production like wind-turbines which are rapidly increasing in number in US and Europe, while solar power and bio-fuels are getting world recognition. This book encompasses topics ranging from specific ones like fuel combustion and co-existence with renewable energy to basics like environment, economics of energy and food security. The book is not an elaborative scientific work, but the research and analysis of the subject with a general view point make it a comfortable read for anyone who wants to gain insight on the subject. |
