摘要：The first-named author of this book is one of those rare inter-disciplinarians: a first-rate economist whose understanding of how the economy works is informed at the deepest level by an appreciation of the economic importance of energy and materials, that is, by the physical and energetic basis of all economic activity. This book is an exploration based on that perspective of the importance of energy – or exergy as it is more correctly called – to the economic growth experienced by different economies over the last few centuries.
