Reviews

This book provides a broad approach to energy economics that, while theoretically based, focuses on empirical results. ... the chapters in the book are fairly stand-alone, with little integration between. ... For practitioners or students who are looking for stand alone reference chapters on major energy economic topics, this may be a good choice. (Janie M. Chermak, The Energy Journal, Vol. 40 (6), 2019)
