Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - What a Misleading Title...
I received the twelve edition of this book, and was disappointed even after I read reviews that gave me an idea of what to expect. The main flaw of this book is that the title does not accurately reflect the information presented in the book.
-There is only a short, but detailed section on separating hydrogen and oxygen from water.
-Fails to bridge the technical gap between "water powered engines", those that seperate water just prior to combustion, and "hydrogen engines" those that ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - fuel from water ; w. peavey
Excellent reference source for detailed factual record of progress in the utilization of hydrogen fuel. Collates a wide range of industrial and academic research that has not had high u.s. media visibility.
Especially useful index for further individual research.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Give this guy a break
I too am surprised to see so much negative feedback on this book.
On the positive side it is filled with hard to find information on making hydrogen and using it. It would have taken me dozens of weeks to find this information on the web - if I even knew where to look. So at less than $20 this is a real bargain. It reminded me of many forgotten methods of creating hydrogen. This book has real value.
On the negative side...Mr. Peavey what were you thinking? You need to hire a good technical ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - H 2 brute'?
This more like a high school paper gone wrong than a serious book for adults. Typical of the nonsense circulating around lately regarding Hydrogen as an alternate fuel. Poor science, terrible reading...... Does not factually deal with the real issues such as cost of distribution, storage and gasification. An insult to any reader with a brain.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - what the Hydrogen Revolution is about
This book has been in publication since 1985? That is quite impressive that he started thinking about this stuff way back then. I can't believe all the negative feedback and this book is in it's 11th edition. If there are so many errors and everyone has the time to write about it here don't you think you could send the author a little note? Like "Hey Mikey, photovoltaic cells are made of silicon and implants are made of Silicone." The book is good as a rough start, I'll admit it has been very helpful ... Read More
