Seeing the Light

The California energy crisis is not simply about a lack of electricity. It is about who owns the production and distribution of that electricity. As state after state agrees to deregulation, the utility industry is approaching a concentration not seen since the Power Trust of the 1930s. Seeing the Light urges us to change the rules now and create a future that includes affordable, locally owned electricity. The book chonicles hopeful new developments and reminds us that the best way to prevent another crisis is to build a better system. - Back cover.
