Overview

The prevailing impression in popular discussion of future energy supply is that a crisis will occur, sooner or later, owing to the exhaustion of present resources. In this formative and thought-provoking book, a leading energy researcher demonstrates that sufficient energy resources are available to meet all energy needs for the foreseeable future. However, this does not remove the threat of an energy supply crisis. What is lacking--the missing resource--is the knowledge of how to use these resources in a practical and environmentally acceptable manner. Dostrovsky argues that long-term technical development will be needed to ensure future energy sufficiency, and that international cooperation on technical research, environmental impact, and energy use is needed now to avoid a succession of energy crises in the future.
