Recensioner i media

‘This book demonstrates that energy is more than just a sectoral concern; it is a cross-cutting concept that pervades all elements of society. Addressing the energy–climate nexus demands a coordinated and interdisciplinary strategy, as this book expertly demonstrates by considering the interconnectedness of business, technological, health, financial, legal and policy systems. A must-read given the dramatic changes that we must achieve quicker than ever before in human history!’
