Solar Energy – Letting It Shine

Solar Energy – Letting It ShineI know that at least a few hundred readers (I wish it were more) have checked out 2GreenEnergy’s recent video series in which I interviewed author John Perlin on camera regarding his incredible book: Let It Shine – The 6000 Year Story of Solar Energy.  John, a scholar in residence at the University of California at Santa Barbara, taught me a ton–on a subject that I thought I understood fairly well.

I had merely glanced through the book prior to the interviews, because, not to sound cynical, most of the expository writing I come across in the field of renewable energy isn’t all that good.  I was positively blown away when I decided, on a whim, to read it cover to cover.

Let It Shine is amazing; the content is fascinating, and the presentation may be even better.  Readers should eagerly anticipate brilliant, flowing, and completely lucid writing.  No wonder folks like Amory Lovins and Lester Brown have written such glowing reports.
