Abstract
|
:
|
"Chasing the Sun is a story of dreamers and doers who succeeded in their mission to make the world a better place by delivering nature's energy to poor people and by building organizations to put the sun at their service in practical, affordable and effective ways. A fun and eye-opening green-energy development narrative, the book is also part autobiography."--Jacket.
