Originally published in 1981. Every aspect of Energy - production,
conversion and use - is discussed and explained in this unique
dictionary. Comprehensive and well-illustrated entries cover fossil
and other types of chemical fuel; hydro-electric and nuclear power;
energy conservation; solar energy of every kind; wind, wave and
tidal power. Every type of nuclear reactor is described, with
emphasis on the energy technologies that have the greatest
relevance and future promise. The first section is devoted to a
careful explanation of the units used, with conversion tables; key
concepts are precisely defined. The closing sections comprise
tables of international energy statistics and a short bibliography.
This is an excellent introduction and invaluable reference work for
general readers, students and all workers in energy and
energy-related fields.
