The Return of the Solar Cat Book:
Mixing cat wisdom with science and solar politics

by Jim Augustyn

www.solarcat.com

This update to Jim Augustyn's cult classic offers a solid introduction to solar theory through a lighthearted comparison to cats. Using wit, sarcasm, and a healthy dose of irreverence, Augustyn compares cats' innate appreciation for the sun to our own more convoluted attempts to use solar energy. Delightful drawings by Hildy Paige Burns bring the text to life. Don't be fooled by the book's entertainment value, though. Heaps of good, entry-level information are packed between the punch lines.
