Why has there been so much talk and so little action? In \u003cem\u003eWho Turned Out the Lights?\u003c\/em\u003e Scott Bittle and Jean Johnson offer a much-needed reality check: The \"Drill, Baby, Drill\" versus \"Every Day Is Earth Day\" battle is not solving our problems, and the finger-pointing is just holding us up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSorting through the political posturing and confusing techno-speak, they provide a fair-minded, \"let's skip the jargon\" explanation of the choices we face. And chapters such as \"It's All Right Now (In Fact, It's a Gas)\" prove that, while the problem is serious, getting a grip on it doesn't have to be. In the end, the authors present options from the right, left, and center but take just one position: The country must change the way it gets and uses energy, and the first step is to understand the choices.\u003c\/p\u003e | \u003cp\u003ePraise for Where Does the Money Go?:  “If you are going to buy just one book in the presidential election year, you might want to consider Where Does the Money Go?...This is a book that manages to be entertaining and irreverent while serving as an informative primer on a subject that is crucial to the future of all Americans.” - \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“In this clear, concise, and accessible book, Bittle and Johnson go beyond name calling and finger pointing and take a refreshing middle ground.
