REX A. EWING

Ewing is a writer who loves a challenge, especially when it comes wrapped up in numbers and science that beg to be explained. When people in the hydrogen industry and the book world asked him to write a book about hydrogen and fuel cells for the non-scientist, he couldn't resist the opportunity to take dry—some would say incomprehensible—science, and craft a page-turner that reads like a best seller. His latest book is one that can be enjoyed by all, high school age on up. Even scientists will appreciate his vivid visualizations that get to the heart of their science.

From his solar- and wind-powered studio in the Colorado Rockies, Ewing has also written Power With Nature, Got Sun? Go Solar, and Crafting Log Homes Solar Style.

Before moving to the mountains to concentrate on his writing, Ewing spent several years as CEO of a well-respected equine nutrition firm, where he formulated and marketed numerous nutrition products worldwide. In 1997, he wrote a best-selling book on horse nutrition: Beyond the Hay Days: Refreshingly Simple Horse Nutrition. His articles frequently appeared in several popular equine publications. The updated and expanded 2nd edition was released 2003.
