Energy research and development. A selected reading list

A selected listing of 1,219 publications is assembled for the identification of promising areas for energy research and development. The document is designed to assist the layman. The genesis of the reading list was a need to gain a perspective on what has already been done in energy research and development. The perspective was required to support the development of a report to the President from the Chairman of the AEC on long-range energy research and development needs and policy as requested in the President's June 29, 1973, statement on Energy and National Resources. The bibliography emphasizes general publications on energy sources, electric power, generation, energy uses, and references on energy supply and demand studies. An appendix includes an author index, a simple title index, and a permuted index on titles. (MCW)
