'Earthscan bill these volumes as expert handbooks and they do not
disappoint. They will save you from making costly mistakes and are
well worth the cover price.'
Permaculture Magazine 'This series is pitched at just the right
level for specialists - detailed, well illustrated, full of
information yet readable. You can buy similar books cheaper but you
won't get the level of detail or the clarity of explanation and
illustrations.'
Permaculture Magazine 'Clear, concise, comprehensive.'
Green Energy Magazine 'Detailed and easy to understand.'
Bioenergy International 'Starting with an overview of the physics
of heat and backed by an array of real life case studies, 'Wood
Pellet Heating Systems' offers well grounded advice for anyone
embarking on the planning, sizing, design or installation of a wide
variety of wood fuel systems. The book is well illustrated, jargon
free and clearly written, offering a valuable contribution to
unlocking the potential of wood fuel in a wide range of
applications.'
