"Blackout is an important and timely book. In the form of this compact volume, one of the best and most productive peak oil authors working today has turned his customary scholarhsip, wisdom, wit and writing prowess to some of the most ciritical issues now unfolding on our planet. "- Frank Kaminski, Energy BulletinCoal fuels about 50% of US electricity production and provides a quarter of the country’s total energy. China and India’s ferocious economic growth is based on coal-generated electricity.Coal currently looks like a solution to many of our fast-growing energy problems. However, while coal advocates are urging full steam ahead, increasing reliance on the dirtiest of all fossil fuels has crucial implications for climate science, energy policy, the world economy, and geopolitics.Drawbacks to a coal-based energy strategy include:
- Scarcity—new studies prove that the peak of usable coal production may actually be less than two decades away.
- Cos
Richard Heinberg is widely acknowledged as one of the world's foremost Peak Oil educators.

This book caught me on a few, and not just stuff from the 3rd century BC. Fun and colorful.
However, the origami is so simple that most of the bugs don't even look like bugs. There wasn't anything offensive (no description of sex or graphic violence) but there was description of a man being aroused. This is too low a level for any graduate class and doesn't create the excitement other applications provide. This is the first book that I have read that discusses expected growth rates and ease of propagation. This book is one of the worse I ever see representing the mathematics for physics, the mathematics and the physics both was not explained as it should, the authors are not familiar at all with the concept of physics make their material in the book related to this subject unclear and vague. Many books on elementary partial differential equations spend all their time on the big three: heat, wave and Laplace. A read for any uber religious fanatic who thinks that sex is good,
