Title: The Secrets of Biodiesel
Author: Mervyn E. Rees
Publisher: CreateSpace Nov 2009
Paperback: 172 pages
Rating: Four (of five) Thumbs Up

I just finished reading “The Secrets of Biodiesel” and found it to be a fairly good introduction to biodiesel. Mr. Rees succeeds at explaining the basics of biodiesel well enough for anyone just looking into biodiesel to decide whether or not they want to make or use biodiesel.

Mr Rees has published two books on biodiesel, this one and "The Book on Biodiesel" They are essentially the same book with printing costs being the only difference. The Book on Biodiesel uses a smaller paper size and black and white pictures. "The Secrets of Biodiesel" uses a larger paper that is more friendly to reading instructions and uses color illustrations.

Whether we are nearing the end of oil or merely nearing the end of inexpensive oil, it is becoming increasingly clear that we need to find alternative ways to meet our energy needs. Biodiesel is one such alternative—and is one of the fastest-growing sectors of the US economy.
