This book is designed to answer some of your questions about solar energy, such as, why would one choose solar energy over conventional energy? We will be talking not only about the "why" of things but also and foremost about the "how". But first things first: Why? Recall the famous last words of the notorious Timothy Leary: "Why?... Why not!" Well, between those dots there is a lot one can say. My own example will show you one way people get introduced to solar power - which is through the door of money, or rather the lack of it. Solar energy is cheap and gets cheaper each year as solar equipment inters the age of mass production. It is no longer just for idealists in the desert somewhere who try by all means to survive the alternative way. Solar hot water and the passive solar building style have entered the mainstream in the sunbelt states, and now getting your electricity from the sun seems to be more and more a natural thing to do.
