new edition available

I use this book as a text book for a 12 th grade elective course on energy. there is a new edition available from Kendall Hunt Publishing

Excellent work on all energy sources. Easy to understand.

The book starts by reviewing some basic energy principles and then goes on analyzing each energy source along with its environmental impact. The layout of the book is excellent. It has chapters reviews and questions and problems. Very easy to understand, even for the layman. Fun to read for the pro. Lots of information.
