Books by Henry Sanderson
“The writing is remarkably accessible, engaging readers with vivid storytelling. Drawing a parallel between the ‘volt’ rush and the ‘gold’ rush, Henry evokes a sense of wonder, making the narrative deeply resonant. Henry Sanderson has consistently showcased prowess in commodities journalism. As he delved deeper into the battery industry, his focus appeared to naturally gravitate there. The book offers a holistic view of the battery world, with the environmental considerations particularly well-articulated. He looks at how Chinese (and other) entrepreneurs in this industry, including Wang Xiaoshen and Robin Zeng, managed to establish their position in the market with their companies, what obstacles and challenges they faced, and how quickly they managed to scale their operations. There’s also a very interesting chapter about the lithium industry in the UK, about how it has a chance to develop in Cornwall.” Read more...
