Rezension zu „Energy Demand and Climate Change “
"Most readers would probably agree that if only politicians could be made to read this book they then would be convinced that much of the current taxation and subsidy policy should be consigned to the dustbin and replaced by at least one of the other carbon-free technologies so elegantly described here ." (Chromatographia, July 2010) "[An] original approach ... .Recommended to graduate students and to science educators at all levels, who have the pressing responsibility to increase awareness of energy and climate problems in younger generations." ( Angewandte Chemie International Edition , 2009)
