3.0 out of 5 stars An excellent resource for students writing reports on EVs., May 12, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Keys to the Car: Electric and Hydrogen Vehicles for the 21st Century (Paperback)

This book makes an excellent resource for the student trying to understand the engineering side of the development of electric vehicles. MacKenzie does a good job of explaining the history and merits of electric vehicles in a style that is clear, thorough, and easy to read. I really would like to see the section on future policy expanded, however. McKenzie imparts some good ideas for the future but they are too vague to take to heart. Overall, the book is very informative but does not advocate its matter enough.
