Reader Question: One Biodiesel Book

Email is great for connecting with readers all around the world--and it's been a super way to help us stay in touch with what readers want and need-to-know during 2007 ... here's a question from John, who wrote:

"One more question, if you were going to purchase one complete Biodiesel book which would you buy? I want to build my own reactor and want specs on equipment etc."

Hi John,

We’ve read reviews of a wide range of alt fuel books, but have used only one: “From The Fryer to the Fuel Tank” by Josh Tickell. The first part of the book is history and politics, but then it gets into really good how to stuff. We think it’s a good value at about $20 - $25.

However, take a look at these biodiesel books available at the following link and see what other purchasers have said--especially those from Amazon.com. I always read the consumer reviews before making a decision--their critiques usually prove to be spot-on. We've pulled together a selection of alt fuel and hybrids books that might provide some other good reading--and please, let us know if you find other good reads to add to these lists.

Best,
