Plug In Hybrids: The Cars That will Recharge America

If you want to learn more about the future of transportation but were afraid the information would go over your head or bore you to tears, this is the book is for you. Sherry Boschert writes in such a conversational manner that subjects like alternative fuels, California air quality regulations, battery capacity and greenhouse gases become an enjoyable read. Perhaps this is because Boschert includes passionate personalities and personal stories amid a lot of pertinent facts and figures. There are detailed comparisons on the efficiency of plug-in hybrids, a very interesting chapter on hydrogen, and lots of battery information too. I learned a lot and came away inspired - even hopeful that we can soon have cars on the road that get over 100 mpg. Ms. Boschert, an award winning writer and electric car owner, has written an important book that every tech geek, clean air activist and soccer mom can read and enjoy. She also serves on the board of directors of Plug In America.
