Wave energy, together with other renewable energy resources is expected to provide a small but significant proportion of future energy requirements without adding to pollution and global warming.
This practical and concise reference considers alternative application methods, explains the concepts behind wave energy conversion and investigates wave power activities across the globe.
Explores the potential of using the power generated by waves as a natural energy resource
Considers the power transfer systems needed to do this, and looks at the environmental impacts
Summary: Wave energy conversion

I would advise people to steer well clear of this book. It is a total waste of money and better reading can be obtained on the internet for free (eg. the european thematic network on wave energy conversion pdf file.). I am currently doing a project on wave enrgy conversion and i thought this book would be helpful.
The book contains poor information on the economics of wave energy conversion and very poor pictures of devices. If you buy this book you will end up returning it.
