Exploding the Myth of Cheap Oil, remaking our lives after Peak Oil - (ISBN 0-473-10917-4, pub 2006)
Substantial oil discoveries peaked in the 1960s. ‘Peak Oil’ is the end of cheap oil and the decline of world oil supplies. This peak in oil supplies is said to have occurred around the turn of the century. It has been shown mathematically that even if Earth’s entire sphere were full of oil there would only be enough for about three centuries at the current rate of usage. Usage continues to grow annually and the mathematics of growth show usage numbers become astronomically large in modest periods of time. Exploding the Myth of Cheap Oil, remaking our lives after Peak Oil looks at the problem and some ways in which it may be overcome.
Exploding the Myth of Nanotechnology - (ISBN 978-0-473-12424-3, pub 2007)
Nanotechnology refers to techniques used to engineer structures, materials and systems that operate at a scale of 100 nano-metres (nm) or less, a size that is invisible to the naked eye. One nm is one billionth of a metre, a human hair about 80,000 nm. Developments in this new technology operate largely in a regulatory vacuum and safety testing is not compulsory. Exploding the Myth of Nanotechnology looks at the results of studies and asks are there potential risks and/or benefits to this new technology?
