What a waste. I am a firm believer that the the sun drives global warming/cooling. Wouldn’t you figure that a guy doing a book on solar power would figure that out? I also do not like waste. I think solar power is a smart move on its own merits. This book could save natural resources by sticking to the topic stated in its title and not doing the socialist propagandizing. 300 pages of waste (trees, shipping, ink etc.) and 66 pages of what you are buying the book for. It is the first and last DUMMIES book I buy as I’m no dummy.
Oh darn, Global warming turned out to be a hoax. Solar power is still a good idea. Just not this book.

Rik Degunther’s style is very easy to understand and he leaves no stone unturned in an effort to save the consumer money. He covers a lot of simple things you can and should do, even including how to economically turn on the faucet, before investing the bigger bucks into solar hardware. This book is fun to read and I especially enjoyed the emphasis on reducing our “carbon footprint”. Saving money is a good first motivation, but saving our environment should also factor into the bottom line, and his book constantly reminds us of this fact.

A very informative book on the subject of solar energy. The way the book was written was simple to understand and easy to read. The comparison of grid tied power to solar was very enlightening. A super read if you are considering the prospects of solar energy.
