picalttag

'Flying? No Fear!' by Adrian Akers-Douglas. The author, a highly qualified pilot, explained everything that had concerned me about flying, the noises of the engines, the constant ding-dongs of the cabin, the reason why the plane takes off in the first place! Absolutely every fear I had is explained in this book! Including absurd thoughts that go through your head! I urge anybody that is scared of flying to buy this eBook, because I felt it was worth every penny! In fact, Read it on the Plane!

'AC/DC' by Tom McNichol. McNichols does an excellent job from explaining in clear terms about electricity, to the relevant background of the two main experimenters and producers -- exponents of either Alternating AC or Direct DC current, the competitors Edison and Westinghouse -- and finally to the modern equivalent of their wars. McNichol introduces the whole subject with his own personal dangerous episodes with both currents. Then the book has a fascinating section explaining the element, just like recent books on ice and salt. Are you totally BORED yet? Im a sucker for science and energy related topics.

AC/DC (Adobe Reader) eBook edition by McNichol, Tom
AC/DC tells the little-known story of how Thomas Edison wrongly bet in the fierce war between supporters of alternating current and direct current. The savagery of this electrical battle can hardly be imagined today. The showdown between AC and DC began as a rather straightforward conflict between technical standards, a battle of competing methods to deliver essentially the same product, electricity. But the skirmish soon metastasized into something bigger and darker

Transportation and Energy High Points to Know

picalttag

'Zoom: The Global Race to Fuel the Car of the Future' by Nijay Vaitheeswaran, Iain Carson. If you are looking only for knowledge on the energy crisis that we might face, this is not the book for you. But if you are an automobile fan, it gives a good insight into the past of the automobile industry and the issues facing it today. Look at the book from an automobile perspective rather than an energy perspective and you will enjoy it! If you're at all concerned about how the world will handle its intense energy needs, start here.
'Feeding The Fire' by Mark Eberhart. This is a conversational eBook explaining why energy is the key to our progress. Without taking sides, Mark Eberhart shows why lots of energy is important and why it is necessary to our world but not easy to seek to use energy more efficiently. I love a eBook that both makes me feel both smarter when I have finished reading it, and at the same time completely pleased with the experience of reading it. This book accomplishes both goals.

Zoom: The Global Race to Fuel the Car of the Future eBook edition by Vaitheeswaran, Vijay, Carson, Iain
ZOOM takes readers inside the global race to build the car of the future, as pioneers in Japan, India, China, and the USA tackle the challenge of creating automobiles that will run on cleaner energy sources. As the authors succinctly write: "Oil is the problem. Cars are the solution." We are living in the midst of a Great Awakening in which environmentalists, entrepreneurs, and political leaders are forming new alliances to end our addiction to oil and create new technologies. The days of Big Oil and Big Auto are numbered, according to the authors, who show how we are in the midst of a major transformation from carbon-based energy sources to new fuels and technologies.
