Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
An edited work, the book explores the growing field of geothermal energy. The contributors each develop a specific area relating to the potential of geothermal energy and its effects on a community. This gives a detailed exploration of the field and shows how cost effective it can be under the right conditions, and the type of system required for recovery. The reader will gain an overview of the subject and its possibilities.
