摘要

Marilyn Brown and Benjamin Sovacool have done an excellent job of assembling a group of very qualified coauthors to produce this anthology of essays on energy and society in America. Their premise is that for the most part Americans are "energy illiterate," with most of their understanding based on "myths" rather than truths. Underlying the entire collection is the basic belief that while many Americans may be "aware" of the importance of energy issues because of increasing electricity, gas, or oil prices, they are grossly misinformed or completely ignorant of how our current energy system really works, how invasive it is in almost every area of our lives, and what we can do to effectively mitigate its long-term damaging effects on the health of our environment and on our economic well-being.
