This book covers how magnesium can be used for metal-air-fuel cells for automobiles and powerplants. The automobile with Zinc-air-fuel cell achieved 600km mileage in 2003 and Magnesium-air-fuel cell can give 3 times more energy which is 7.5 times more effective than Lithium-ion battery. Solar-pumped laser regenerates metal Magnesium from combusted Magnesium oxide. The book covers how low-cost desalination with solar-power will be a promising solution to the global water shortage.

Takashi Yabe is a professor at Tokyo Institute of Technology. His main research areas include computational fluid dynamics and laser application. He was engaged in laser fusion at the Institute of Laser Engineering, Osaka University, and achieved highest neutron production (awarded in1987). He also proposed a new numerical scheme called the CIP method. The citations to this work exceed 1200. The Time magazine chose Dr. Yabe as one of the "Heroes of the Environment" in 2009. He is CEO of Electra Co., Ltd., and a chairman of Pegasos Electra Co., Ltd., founded for this project.

"Prof. Yabe has entered the arena in the search for alternative energy sources with a brilliant and challenging idea. Indeed magnesium can be the answer to the world's energy needs. The book captures the reader's interest while it takes us through an excursion into original ways for extracting magnesium from our natural resources and the many possibilities for its use as the definite alternative energy recycling system."—Prof. Eugenio Onate, CIMNE, Spain
