Recenzii

"I found this book to be well researched with reasoned and compelling arguments. Allwood and Cullen are to be congratulated. This is essential reading for both student and practitioner, particularly those in senior management positions. 10/10." --"Materials World" (April 2012)

Descriere

Industry's target is to halve carbon emissions by 2050. But demand for materials will DOUBLE, so we'll have to reduce emissions per ton of material by 75%. The book shows how we can do this, backed up by real-life commercial experience, and full of scientific detail. The book is written for a popular audience as well as specialist readers.
