This book addresses critical issues related to a biofuel-driven transportation network. Reijnders (biodiversity and ecosystem dynamics, Univ. of Amsterdam, Netherlands) and Huijbregts (environmental science, Radboud Univ. Nijmegen, Netherlands) have done a thorough job explaining the varieties of biofuels (e.g., ethanol, lipid-based, microalgae), including their characteristics and production... This well-researched work, with an extensive bibliography, will be of interest to all levels of readers and should be on every fuel professional's bookshelf... Highly recommended. Choice (August 2009) (Reviewer: J. Tavakoli, Lafayette College)

• Transport Biofuels: Their Characteristics, Production and Costs.- Energy Balance: Cumulative Fossil Fuel Demand and Solar Energy Conversion Efficiency of Transport Biofuels.- Non-energy Natural Resource Demand.- Climate Effects and Non-greenhouse Gas Emissions Associated with Transport Biofuel Life Cycles.- The Impact of Expanded Biofuel Production on Living Nature.- Frequently Asked Questions in the Transport Biofuel Debate.
