Who Turned Out the Lights?

Who says that a book about the energy crisis can't be informative, accessible and funny at the same time? From nuclear power to alternative forms of transportation to special interests in Washington, Who Turned Out the Lights? presents a clear, nonbiased look all the issues surrounding the energy crisis. Just because the topic is serious, doesn't mean books about it have to be. With references to pop culture from "South Park" episodes to Rolling Stones songs, the authors break down relevant information into easily understandable facts and arguments without sacrificing the complexity of the issues. For a generation of students more accustomed to getting their news from "The Daily Show" than the The Wall Street Journal, this is a perfect match.
