Mat's Review: 

Amory Lovins, physicist, ecologist, technical innovator and founder of the Rocky Mountain Institute, has coauthored a clear practical blueprint for weaning America from our oil addiction while jump starting the economy and regaining our position as the world’s leader in sustainable technology and innovation. The Rocky Mountain Institute has been hired by numerous governments and large corporations, including Wal-Mart and the Department of Defense, to study their systems and make recommendations for improving materials, process and energy efficiencies. If you are a person who is technically oriented and likes details, facts and figures, then this is the book for you. Lovins, who invented the term “negawatts” and has been a pioneer in the sustainability movement, clearly shows us that we can thrive while beating peak oil if we would just do the right things on a national and global scale. Highly recommended!
