by Dr. Tom Bogart, president of Maryville College and author of "The False
Promise of Green Energy."
Dr. Bogart will discuss his book and sign copies following this presentation.
According to the publisher, the Cato Institute, The False Promise of Green
Energy, by Andrew P. Morriss, William T. Bogart, Roger E. Meiners, and Andrew
D. Dorchak, is a
"…nearly unprecedented evaluation of claims by green energy and green jobs
proponents that we can improve the economy and the environment, almost risk
free, by spending billions of dollars on what are ultimately false promises."
Dr. Bogart came to Maryville College in 2011. He was an economics professor
at Case Western Reserve University and Dean of Academic Affairs at York
College of Pennsylvania. Dr. Bogart holds a Ph.D. (1990) in Economics from
Princeton University where his work was recognized with the Outstanding
Dissertation Award from the National Tax Association. He also authored The
Economics of Cities and Suburbs andDon't Call It Sprawl: Metropolitan Structure
in the Twenty-first Century, published in 2006. Join us!
