Acknowledgments

This book has had a long gestation. I apologize to anyone whose early contribution I’ve now forgotten.

I thank above all my partner, Esther Verheyen, who would drop everything on short notice to review a chapter, even while she effortlessly directed her genetics research lab, wrote and reviewed academic papers, taught university courses, and parented her two teenagers. I also thank my children, Ingram, Kjartan, Torsten, and Sigbrit, for their feedback on my work and continuous help in finding the humorous and fun side of life.

Many others contributed suggestions and provided help along the way, including Brad Griffin, John Nyboer, Noori Meghji, Bruce Mohun, James Glave, Lally Grauer, Thomas Homer-Dixon, John Pearce, and Naomi Oreskes. In particular, I thank Chris Harrison, my editor at Cambridge University Press, for his friendly combination of intellectual rigor and creative encouragement.

I have benefited enormously through the years from the talented and committed grad students in my Energy and Materials Research Group, and the students who take my graduate interdisciplinary course in sustainable energy. Former students who especially contributed to this book include Jacob Fox (for editing and providing the cartoons), Adam Baylin-Stern, Sally Rudd, Aaron Pardy, Rose Murphy, and Thomas Budd.
