"Winning our Energy Independence: An Energy Insider Shows How" By S. David Freeman
RATING:
The most remarkable element of “Winning Our Energy Independence” is the expertise and credibility of author S. David Freeman. Believe it or not, Freeman has been involved with drafting energy policy and managing public utilities since he worked as part of President Kennedy’s administration in the 1960s.
In an effort to share his lifetime of energy experience, Freeman has crafted a book that is neither über-technical nor plainly academic. His discussion of the world’s energy situation is grounded in reality, and his proposal for shifting to a renewables-based system is equally rational and plainly spoken. In a field that has been dominated by the polar opposites of bleeding-heart environmentalists and skeptical industrialists, Freeman’s book strikes a balance that should capture the attention of readers on all sides of the argument.
