Buyer beware! Don't buy the hardcover! - For the hardcover edition: It's like someone bought the original book, tore out the insides, ran them through a copier, then bound the copy with the original cover. The innards are just sheets of regular office copy paper. None of the photos or diagrams are printed in color. If I had known this is what I was getting, I would have just bought the e-book and printed it myself in color. I'm annoyed with myself for not opening it within the return window (bought it early and didn't actually need it until this week). Review: Esperaba que viniera a color. Sin embargo, buen libro introductorio a las EERR. - El libro es muy bueno. Desde mi punto de vista, aborda muy bien los temas. Sin embargo, noté que en esta nueva edición, si bien agregan información nueva, también omitieron algunos párrafos de la 1ra edición. Por el precio del libro, esperaba que viniera a colores, pero viene en blanco y negro. Fuera de ello, es un buen libro para tratar temas introductorios de energías renovables.
