520    Energy is the only universal currency; it is necessary for
       getting anything done. The conversion of energy on Earth 
       ranges from terra-forming forces of plate tectonics to 
       cumulative erosive effects of raindrops. Life on Earth 
       depends on the photosynthetic conversion of solar energy 
       into plant biomass. Humans have come to rely on many more 
       energy flows-ranging from fossil fuels to photovoltaic 
       generation of electricity-for their civilized existence. 
       In this monumental history, Vaclav Smil provides a 
       comprehensive account of how energy has shaped society, 
       from pre-agricultural foraging societies through today's 
       fossil fuel-driven civilization. Humans are the only 
       species that can systematically harness energies outside 
       their bodies, using the power of their intellect and an 
       enormous variety of artifacts-from the simplest tools to 
       internal combustion engines and nuclear reactors. The 
       epochal transition to fossil fuels affected everything: 
       agriculture, industry, transportation, weapons, 
       communication, economics, urbanization, quality of life, 
       politics, and the environment. Smil describes humanity's 
       energy eras in panoramic and interdisciplinary fashion, 
       offering readers a magisterial overview.
