Global energy needs are expanding substantially as populations grow and economies develop around the world. There is clear evidence that continued use of fossil fuels as the world's dominant energy supply is damaging the environment and causing changes in global climate patterns. People want higher levels of more efficient, cleaner, and less obtrusive energy services. Global Energy Perspectives presents six long-term energy futures that lay out the alternatives among future fuels, technologies, efficiency gains, conservation patterns, and pollution levels, and pinpoints the key choices that are most likely to characterize the twenty-first century.

"The need for an assessment of the urban dimension of western Canadian development is obvious. Recent reviews of western Canadian history indicate that urban studies have not yet achieved a place of equality beside such areas as political, ethnic, native, or labour history. One of the main reasons for this is that unlike these areas of study, the writing of urban history most often begins with a local situation, and local history, unfortunately, rarely attracts the attention of professional scholars" - from the General Introduction.
