From the publication:
SCIENCE/ECOLOGY NON-NUCLEAR FUTURES THE CASE FOR AN ETHICAL ENERGY STRATEGY AMORY B.LOVINS JOHN H. PRICE This challenge to the assumption that nuclear power should, must and will play a large part in our future energy supplies moves beyond questions of mere technical feasibility to probe fundamental ethical, social, environmental, economic, and policy issues that should also influence our energy decisions. Our energy choices reflect an imminent divergence: high-energy paths, which inevitably rely on centralized and electrified high technologies, versus lower- energy, less wasteful paths, which could gradually come to rely on smaller-scale, often less electrified technologies for harnessing natural energy flows. The social differences between these two approaches are profound; the choices become more urgent every day. "Amory Lovins is the real thing: an anti-nuclear polemicist whose arguments are so well organized, clearly expressed and extensively documented that even the most enthusiastic partisans on the other side will have to take notice .... His contribution both enlivens and deepens the Great Energy Debate."-The New York Times Book Review. Harper & Row, Publishers Cover design by John Clarke 0-06-090777-0
