It present an in-depth analysis of the current role of biomass energy in the developing countries including the most detailed collection of data from national and village level energy survey yet to be compiled.rnThe authors describe in a clear and systematic way the various biomass energy technologies, which range in sphistication from community fuelwood plantations for supplying village energy needs, to large scale conversion systems for producing liquid fuels from biomass.rnBut the authors have also gone beyond the purely technical questions involved in biomass use. They deal at length with the all important social and economic issues that determine the desirability and practical feasibility of biomass systems under local conditions.rnThis book represents an invaluable source of information for all those interested in the energy problems of the developing countries, and provides an important insight into the role that biomass can play in the future.rn
