本書序言
●UPDATED DATA TABLES AND GRAPHS REFLECT THE LATEST INFORMATION AND DEVELOPMENTS. Students gain practice working with some of today’s most recent information from a variety of sources. Data tables and graphs support and clarify information and help students learn how to interpret graphical data.
●ADDITIONAL CHAPTER PROBLEMS OFFER MORE OPPORTUNITY FOR PRACTICE. The author has more than doubled the number of chapter problems for this edition to provide you with additional flexibility in homework assignment and classroom practice.
●MORE THAN 30 NEW EXAMPLES BRING PRINCIPLES TO LIFE. A variety of real and memorable environmental examples demonstrate the relevance and importance of concepts students are learning.
●NEW AND EXPANDED SECTIONS ADDRESS EMERGING NEW TECHNOLOGIES IN INTERNATIONAL SETTINGS. Students examine methanol production from CO2, fast breeder reactors, design of inertial confinement fusion reactors, transpired solar collectors, central receivers, and solar ponds. In addition, they analyze physical principles of ocean thermal energy, biogas, and commercial availability of battery electric vehicles and fuel-cell vehicles.
本書特色
●LEARNING OBJECTIVES ESTABLISH CLEAR STUDENT GOALS FOR EACH CHAPTER. These and other pedagogical features ensure students are working at their best. In addition to key Learning Objectives, this book's Chapter Summaries wrap up what knowledge student should have gained from the chapter.
●WORKED-OUT EXAMPLES DEMONSTRATE HOW TO SOLVE QUANTITATIVE END-OF-CHAPTER PROBLEMS. Students learn how to complete quantitative problems that require more analysis than merely plugging in numbers.
●CONTENT FOLLOWS THE MOST RECENT ABET CRITERIA. This edition’s approach and content correspond with ABET guidelines and accreditation.
●THIS EDITION PRESENTS COMPREHENSIVE COVERAGE OF SUSTAINABLE ENERGY. This book addresses present energy production methods as well as potentially viable alternative energy sources.
●ENERGY EXTRA BOXES PROVIDE ENGAGING INSIGHTS. In-depth feature boxes delve into specific aspects of energy and emphasize the complex nature of decisions. They highlight issues such as rare earth elements, natural versus anthropogenic climate change, thorium reactors, evacuated tube solar collectors, wind turbine safety, and thermoelectric generators.
●THE BOOK COMPARES ENERGIES BY USING THE "CURVE" CRITERIA. Students learn to evaluate energy using "CURVE" -- is it clean, unlimited, renewable, versatile, and economical?
●CONTENT STUDIES THE SCIENTIFIC BASIS AND ANALYSIS OF RISK FOR ALL ENERGY PRODUCTION METHODS. Examining these key conditions of energy production is primary analyzing all types of energies covered.
●MATERIAL EMPHASIZES INTERDISCIPLINARY ANALYSIS. Students learn from other disciplines and learn how energy decisions relate to a variety of factors.

本書序言
●更新的數據表和圖表反映最新的信息和發展。學生將從各種來源獲得當今最新的信息進行實踐。數據表和圖表支持並澄清信息，幫助學生學會如何解釋圖形數據。
●額外的章節問題提供更多的練習機會。作者在本版中將章節問題的數量增加了一倍以上，以便為您提供更多的作業和課堂練習的靈活性。
●超過30個新例子使原則生動具體。各種真實且令人難忘的環境例子展示了學生所學概念的相關性和重要性。
●新增和擴展的部分針對國際環境中的新興技術。學生將研究從二氧化碳生產甲醇、快中子增殖反應堆、慣性約束聚變反應堆的設計、透光太陽能集熱器、中央接收器和太陽池。此外，他們還分析海洋熱能、生物氣體以及電池電動車和燃料電池車的商業可用性的物理原理。
本書特色
●學習目標為每個章節建立明確的學生目標。這些及其他教學特徵確保學生能夠發揮最佳表現。除了關鍵的學習目標外，本書的章節摘要總結了學生應該從章節中獲得的知識。
●詳解範例展示如何解決定量的章末問題。學生學會如何完成需要更多分析的定量問題，而不僅僅是代入數字。
●內容遵循最新的ABET標準。本版的內容和方法符合ABET的指導方針和認證要求。
●本版全面涵蓋可持續能源。本書探討當前的能源生產方法以及潛在的可行替代能源來源。
●能源額外框提供引人入勝的見解。深入的特寫框探討能源的特定方面，強調決策的複雜性。它們突顯了稀土元素、自然與人為氣候變化、鈾-232反應堆、真空管太陽能集熱器、風力發電機安全性和熱電發電機等問題。
●本書通過使用“曲線”標準來比較能源。學生學會使用“曲線”來評估能源——它是否乾淨、無限、可再生、多功能且經濟？
●內容研究所有能源生產方法的科學基礎和風險分析。檢視這些能源生產的關鍵條件是分析所有類型能源的主要內容。
●材料強調跨學科分析。學生從其他學科中學習，並了解能源決策如何與多種因素相關。
