Book Review: Synthetic Fuels
Summary: 5 Stars
Although the text is a bit dated, the chemistry and technology covered appear to be completly applicable to today's subject matter. The use of practical metric units is a plus, considering the industries involved. I rate the work as an outstanding and excellent contribution.
