Book Reviews of Fuel from Water: Energy Independence with Hydrogen, 11th Edition
Book Review: What a Misleading Title...
Summary: 3 Stars
I received the twelve edition of this book, and was disappointed even after I read reviews that gave me an idea of what to expect. The main flaw of this book is that the title does not accurately reflect the information presented in the book.
-There is only a short, but detailed section on separating hydrogen and oxygen from water.
-Fails to bridge the technical gap between "water powered engines", those that seperate water just prior to combustion, and "hydrogen engines" those that store and use pure hydrogen for combustion.
-The majority of the book gives detailed schematics and diagrams of pure hydrogen engines, storage methods, uses, history.
-Overall for its cost this book is a good technical reference for people interested in hydrogen as an alternate fuel.
Summary of Fuel from Water: Energy Independence with Hydrogen, 11th Edition
The book advocates hydrogen fuel as the best long-term alternative to fossil fuels and as a way to stop polluting the air and subsidizing terrorists. Shows how to generate hydrogen by electrolysis, how to convert an internal combustion engine to hydrogen, and how hydrogen can be used in home appliances.
