Description
Power Shift is the most compelling argument for solar energy that has ever been assembled. The book blends crystal-clear explanations of energy with visionary thinking into a plausible blueprint for reaching a 100% solar future in fifty years. Power Shift goes far beyond other solar books by exploring the human relationship with energy, showing how solar energy fits into the historical progression of human energy use. The book describes how solar is so fundamentally different from other energy sources that it marks the beginning of a new era of human advancement.
