"I have just viewed with delight the 'A Treatise - Solar Cookers' I welcome the emphasis in your Prologue on the importance of reducing the cost of solar cooking technology. It must become affordable to those in most dire need of a healthy alternative means of cooking. This is a cardinal point decision makers must appreciate. You have contributed a thorough catalog of solar cooking technology. I hope readers will understand that it is by a leading expert on the solar cookers. It is an invaluable tool in the advocacy of a technology that must achieve prominence on our degraded planet. It will serve us all. Thank you for it. In admiration of your important work, I am, Sincerely yours"

"A Treatise on Solar Cookers" by Ashok Kundapur is a comprehensive guide to the world of solar cookers. Over 260 color images and 370 references are testimony of the volume of efforts by Dr. Ashok. The book delves into the history, designs, and applications of solar cookers. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning about solar cookers. Whether you're a curious individual, a DIY enthusiast, or someone looking to explore alternative cooking methods, this book appears to have something to offer. I strongly recommend the same for everyone interested in the clean cooking domain and for all libraries in science and engineering institutes."
