A thin treatise
25 Jun 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase
This is an elementary book suitable for early high school. It covers a broad range of solar energy topics but lacks any in-depth treatment of any of them. That was probably the author's intention; it just wasn't what I had expected. Nevertheless the mention of the various solar technologies was a reminder that there is more to the subject than photovoltaic arrays.
It was also pleasant to see consistent use of simple SI (metric) measurments throughout rather than the complex hodge-podge of units used here in the U.S. but to be fair to other authors, most solar design work is done in SI anyway.
