Description
Energy and Transport analyzes the history of energy use and regulation from the nineteenth century through to the present, as represented by broad policy and consumption in the individual household. The relationship between energy and the evolution of energy policies, and the relationship between fuels and environmental pollution are historically reviewed. Thus these thirteen essays shed much historical light on current energy debates and root out persistent myths about energy use.
