Review # 1 was written on 2013-03-01 00:00:00 Jon Gordon Solar power of the future defiantly changed my way of thing on using energy. In her book, "Solar Power of the Future" Susan Jones talked about how America is using fossil fuels for energy, when really we should be using solar power for energy. The problem is that the U.S is using huge amounts of fossil fuels which is letting greenhouse gases into the air we breathe. When using solar power energy, it doesn't effect anything and is renewable! My thoughts on using solar panels is defiantly a yes because we have unlimited energy. Also instead of using gas for cars, people will solar powered cars can just drive when the suns out and not waste money. My final thoughts are that we should be using more Photovoltaic power and solar building. I say this because it produces zero emission. For example, low-e windows enable people to warm their homes or offices without fossil fuels. Covered with special film, low-e windows allow warmth from the sun to pass into a building. The windows also prevent most of the heat from escaping. I recommend this book to all technology lovers.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-08-22 00:00:00 Matthew Bishop Really more of a "pamphlet" than a book - this only has value if you read it very near the publication date. I suspect that virtually everything in it will be completely out of date within months. Nevertheless, it's well organized and presented. If you're interested in the business opportunities around green technologies, it is a must read.
