Review: "An excellent thumbnail sketch of what has happened in Brazil to make it the world leader in the use, and in expenditure on, biomass energy and applied biotechnology. NatureTo be welcomed as an encouraging report on what has been achieved, and what other nations must seriously consider for their own future in terms of energy supply."―Science and Public Policy
