Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In this hard-hitting book aimed at an informed but not necessarily academic audience, Sweeney addresses four main topics: the current situation in California, the history of California's energy, the consequences of decisions that are being made, and what we should or shouldn't do about it

Book News Annotation:

For policymakers and others with a serious interest in getting beyond finger-pointing, Sweeney (management science and engineering, Stanford U.) itemizes the chain of events that led California to restructure its electricity system, the causes for the failure of that restructuring in 2001, and lessons for the future.
