This volume is the first to give a truly international view on biomass. This international collection of contributed articles examines the use of biomass as a regenerable energy resource in a number of different countries. They look at the ways in which biomass can be used, in wood-burning stoves, as charcoal, biogas, or as liquid fuels. The influence of the uses of biomass upon people in developing countries and their environment is considered in detail. This volume will be a welcome addition to the library of anyone who is concerned with today's use of energy and its consequences.
