非传统能源（第二版 英文版）
出版时间：2010年版
内容简介
　　《非传统能源》（Non-Conventional Energy Resources）一书的内容非常丰富，也比较有特色。从内容上讲，该书不仅包含了太阳能、风能、生物质能、地热能、海洋能、水能等可再生能源，而且对各种新型的能源利用技术，包括燃料电池、氢能、磁流体发电、热电堆发电等进行了介绍，同时还对财务和经济评价方法进行了较详细的说明。这与国内一些院校为本科生开设的课程“可再生能源及其利用技术”或类似的课程时，也将财务和经济评价的内容包括在内的情况不谋而合。这说明对于这些非传统能源，经济评价已经是相当重要的一个方面。而对于每种主要的能源形式，该书都从基本理论、主要利用技术、环境特性、发展应用现状等方面进行了详细的介绍。如果作为教材或教学参考书，建议教师能够再在技术经济性方面做些补充，教学内容会更加全面。《非传统能源（第2版）》对太阳能的介绍最为详尽，共用了三个章节，分别介绍了太阳能的基础知识，太阳热系统，以及太阳能光伏系统。其他能源形式基本是每种一章。同时，《非传统能源（第2版）》对储能也给予了关注，除了有单独的一章介绍储能外，对风能等具体能源形式的储存问题也进行了介绍。《非传统能源（第2版）》的主要特色还有以下几个方面：首先是有大量的例题，这在目前很多相关内容的书籍中是比较少见的；大量的例题非常有利于对内容的理解。其次是有很多特色习题，《非传统能源（第2版）》的习题分为三部分，一是用来复习课本内容的问题（Review Questions）；二是一些分析或计算题（Problems），可以对课本中的知识进行应用；三是客观题（Objective Questions），主要是对一些基本的知识点进行考查。《非传统能源（第2版）》所介绍的例子、应用情况均是以印度的情况为主，阅读和使用时，建议尽量参考我国的实际情况进行修改和补充。
