THE SOLAR.HYDROGEN ECONOMY ". . . Water decomposed into its primitiae elements, . , . and decomposed, doubtless by electricity, wbicb tuill tben baoe become a pouerful and manageable force, . . . I belieae that water will one day be employed as fuel, tbat bydrogen and oxygen wbicb constitute it, used singly or togetber, u.till.furnisb an inexbaustible source of heat dnd ligbt, of an intensity of utbicb coal is not capable. Someday tbe coalrooms of steamers and tbe tenders of locomotiaes will, instead of coal, be stored uitb tbese tuo condensed gases, wbicb will burn in tbe furnace witb calorific power. . , . I belieoe, tben, that when the deposits of coal are exbausted we sltall beat and warm ourselDes uitb wdter. Water will be tbe coal of tbe future." -Jules Verne, 1870, The Mysterious Isldnd Energy : Tbe Solar-Hydrogen Alternatiae,J. O'M. Bockris, 197 5, 364 pp., index, 527 .50 hardbound from ' John Wiley & Sons 605 Third Ave. New York, NY 10016 If Jules Verne has gotten you wondering how this might occur, a founding member of the International Association for Hydrogen Energy has provided an invenrive and encyclopedic introduction that covers all aspects of a possible hydrogen economy: production (by wind, nuclear, geothermal, solar, coal), storage, transportation and utilization. If you want to dig deeper, you might join the Inrernational Association for Hydrogen Energy, P.O. Box 248266, Coral Gables, FL 331,24. For $20lyear membership dues you'll receive the Journal of Hydrogen EnergSt quarterly and get reduced rates ar conferences and on publications. Additional useful resources include a number of comprehensive, annotated bibliographies,.a direcrory to experts in the field, and recent conference proceedings; all available from the National Technical Information Service, 5285 port Royal Rd., Springfield, VA 22761, .
