The hydrogen economy by Jeremy Rifkin, p. 294, paperback edition, J.P. Tarcher, $ 14.95 http://www.amazon.com The latest book by the popular and controversial American writer is a fascinating journey through the history of man and energy, the sources used and the technologies for “creating” energy. But it is above all an in-depth analysis of the present situation from two perspectives – economic, with the diseconomies linked to the progressive depletion of fossil fuels; and environmental, with the unsustainability of current levels of emissions. According to Rifkin, the only possible solution is to develop hydrogen technologies, and he explains – in terms which the ordinary reader can understand – the ecological prospectives and social implications of what could become the energy revolution of the 21st century.
