You should have it!! July 2, 2008

I bought this book immediately after was published. It's a great reference book and very good introduction to solar heating systems. What I liked the most is how the book is set up. It gives you brief overview what the solar energy is, hot it works, and it explains difference between solar panels, what efficiency and solar fraction of solar panels is. And not only that... it tells you about system components, how to design residential systems, large scale systems and way more. As a technical manager for large thermal solar company I always recommend this book to my new team mates.

If you are a designer or installer of Solar Hot Water and Heating-
Buy this book. I know its expensive, but it is worth it!
Nothing I have seen from the US is even close.
One small draw back is that you will have to convert from metric.
