Wind turbine syndrome: a communicated disease (Public and Social Policy)
In Wind Turbine Syndrome: A Communicated Disease, Simon Chapman and Fiona Crichton explore the claims and tactics of the anti-windfarm movement, examine the scientific evidence, and consider how best to respond to anti-windfarm arguments. This is an eye-opening account of the rise of the anti-windfarm movement, and a timely call for a more evidence-based approach.

Honestly, I myself was anti-windfarm before someone turned me on to this book. The author is very clear and uses various methods of explanation as to why wind energy can be so important. I liked the fact based approaches. Would recommend to anyone with doubts regarding wind farms.
