Books - Review

Subtitled Energy, Climate, and the Clash of Nations, this book covers historical and current geo-political issues over (mostly) oil, but also other resources eg materials for car batteries.

Very interesting. Might look out for his Pulitzer prize-winning one; The Prize: The Epic Quest for Oil, Money, and Power.

The epic quest for oil, money and power. The story of oil exploration, development and exploitation up to Operation Desert Storm. Lots of politics and corporate structure.

Very interesting, although I would have liked more technology history of course. But a great history lesson from a very specific angle.
