Review Quotes:

Long overdue, this guide on how to place renewable energy in the landscape to maximize public acceptance is critical to the energy transition that is so desperately needed

Paul Gipe, early advocate of aesthetic design for wind and solar power plants, author of 'Wind Energy for the Rest of Us: A Comprehensive Guide to Wind Power and How to Use It'.

Instrumental reading for those that want an energy future that is not only sustainable and affordable, but inclusive and just. If we are to achieve public support for a sustainable energy future, we must minimize natural public resistance to change. This book shows how to do it.

Benjamin K. Sovacool, Professor of Energy Policy, University of Sussex, UK and Editor in Chief for the Journal of Energy Research & Social Science
