Biography
Minteer\, Shelley
“This book is therefore timely in providing for the first time a comprehensive review of the production of alcohols, their use as fuels in internal combustion engines , and also of more advanced concepts such as fuel cells and fuel cell powered portable energy applications. This book will appeal to a wide range of readers.”
--Gary Acres in Platinum Metal Reviews, 2007, Vol. 51
“This book is a very good readable reference book.”
--V.V. Mahajani, in the Chemical Industry Digest, February 2007
