I've been following advances in electric cars for nearly 50 years and advances in hybrids for 15. I started following electric cars while writing a paper in history class in seventh grade on current events. I started following hybrids when the Honda Insight was released in 1999. I also started following fuel-cell cars about that same time. The Xybrid expands on hybrid technologies, discussing new, potential, and conceptual technologies. If you're interested in cars, and especially if you're interested in hybrids and electric cars, then this book is for you, whether you understand how cars work or not.

I’ve attended parties where people try to break the ice by asking, What’s the grossest meat you’ve ever eaten? This book is not about that topic. For one thing, I’m a meat minimalist or a virtual vegetarian. I think that most people in the US, Europe, and other developed countries eat too much meat. It’s not good for us. It’s not good for the environment. And it’s certainly not good for the animals who get eaten. Did they have a choice in the matter? But I’m not here to shove my point of view down your throat; or anything else for that matter.
