Shades of Darkness: California Energy Crisis "Shades of Darkness is a fascinating but an acutely depressing read. It is a document that deserves to be in every university library, not only in America but Europe too. The California energy crisis is echoed across the globe."
—Anthony Byers, Chief Press Officer (retired) of England's Electricity Council

"Shades of Darkness narrates the truth that for years California has relied on outside entities for its electrical energy supplies. Passage of AB 1890 gave the for-profit private electrical generators the means to manipulate that supply for the state's electrical needs during a period of economic growth. This book details months and years of failure and mismanagement by state and federal regulators in controlling the private suppliers, leading to the darkened days that began in 2000 and to wholesale electricity rates that continue to rise. It's a must-read book which concludes that the energy crisis continues."
—Mary Holmes, Project Manager (retired), California State Controller's Office

Why don't we have reliable power? Author Bill Dulude answers this question, and he doesn't hold back—a tale of greed, corruption, and stupidity, of government betrayal and capitalism out of control—with you and me left paying the price.

Cybereconomics: The Internets Influence on Global Employment The face of economics in general is in a transitory state. What used to be considered "work" is now more mechanized, and labor-intensive jobs are able to be outsourced to a willing labor force hungry for opportunity in many developing nations. Does this spell the end of "work" and a decline in the standard of living in the United States? The book, Cybereconomics, points out that for every job destroyed by technology, other jobs have evolved and more continue to be created. Many jobs that could only have been considered "science fiction" twenty years ago exist today, and the pay scale for emerging positions in the United States is considerably higher than that available in traditional manufacturing or agriculture jobs. Cybereconomics explores the coming paradigm shift in the world of work and the challenges and opportunities presented by a truly borderless free-market economy. Your Cost:
