Energy Resources From Science to Society
these issues at their source. Few texts provide a broad overview of the science and policy challenges associated with the extensive array of energy resources that make up the current global energy system. Energy Resources takes a holistic approach to energy that covers both the science and social-science issues of today's global energy system. It simplifies the scientific background of the resources, describing each step-from formation to transmission-to make the science accessible to students. Each
resource is discussed in both the US and global contexts in order to analyze its impact on the environment, economy, society, and politics.
