77 THE PHYSICS OF ENERGY ROBERT L. JAFFE WASHINGTON TAYLOR
78 Thank you! If your task was to jump-start civilization, but had access to only one book, then The Physics of Energy would be your choice. Professors Taylor and Jaffe have written a comprehensive, thorough, and relevant treatise. It s an energizing read as a stand-alone book, but it should also be a course, offered at every college, lest we mismanage our collective role as shepherds of our energy-hungry, energydependent civilization.
