Review Quotes:

"The book makes a significant contribution to our existing knowledge and provides interested professionals, policymakers and members of the public with a timely overview of the critical issues involved in the societal acceptance of CCS" - Peta Ashworth, Chair of the Social Research Network under the International Energy Agency's Greenhouse Gas R&D Programme

"Would CCS have been in a better state had this book been published in 2005? Probably. Although it is not exhaustive in addressing the social dynamics of CCS, this in itself makes this book worth reading for those interested in climate policy and innovation, but it is obligatory reading for those working on CCS. At the moment, CCS is not on track to play the role that is so badly needed to reduce CO2 emissions from fossil fuel use. If climate policies eventually make CCS a commercial necessity for fossil fuel-based industries, then this book deserves to be re-read. Its knowledge and lessons will allow us to get it right this time." - Heleen de Coninck, Climate Policy
