能源峰值：神话或现实？
近期，本站关于石油峰值理论的讨论甚为热烈。
这儿推荐一本新书，虽然是英文的，有兴趣的可以看看。

Description
Does the Earth contain enoughoil to provide energy for the human race indefinitely? If not, how long willthe oil last? What about renewable energy technologies like wind and solar?Will they be able to supply an indefinite supply of energy for the human race?If not, how long will it last? And what role does overpopulation play in ourworld's energy supply? Even with multiple forms of energy available, how longwill it last as long as more and more humans, and therefore more industries andenergy consumption, are added? Taking a long-held theory called "Peak OilTheory" the authors of this groundbreaking new text examine the theory of"Peak Energy" to examine all of these questions.
Crude oil and natural gas arethe major sources of fuel used to supply energy for various needs. Users ofcrude oil and natural gas must take into account that these energy sources are,without doubt, non-renewable depleting resources, and the cost of extractiondepends not only on the current rate of production but also on the amount ofcumulative production. In fact, many pundits believe projections that the worldis rapidly apprpaching a precipice, after which crude oil and natural gas willno longer be in ready supply.
This phenomenon has given riseto the peak oil theory – peak oil is the point in time whenthe maximum rate of petroleum recovery from the reservoir is reached, afterwhich the rate of petroleum production enters terminal decline. From this concepthas emerged the wider concept of the peakenergy theory which, as it isrelated to the availability of all fossil fuels, is also subject to declinewith fossil fuel use.
This text, written by two ofthe world's most well-known, respected, and prolific writers in the energyindustry, is a fascinating study of our world's energy needs and the future ofthe multi-source energy supply on this planet. Whether oil and gas, wind,solar, geothermal, or even nuclear, all sources of energy have their limits, andwe, as scientists, engineers, and consumers of energy need to be knowledgeableon these topics. This book is a must-have for any engineer, student, scientist,or even layperson interested in energy and the idea of energy sustainability onplanet Earth.
