Review # 1 was written on 2016-07-19 00:00:00 Robert Bernstein A comprehensive look at America's oil policy This ambitious, scholarly book, complete with statistics and charts on all things oil, undertakes the difficult task of measuring the price of U.S. dependence on this energy source. A comprehensive political and military history, it explains the geopolitics behind U.S. energy policy and analyzes its intended and unintended consequences, especially during today's period of scarce energy. Duffield proposes solutions to the strategic problems U.S. policy creates, even though some of his suggestions are not quantifiable or easily achieved. getAbstract recommends this book to energy and utility company executives, government officials and other serious readers who want to understand the numbers and history behind this international dilemma.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-07-20 00:00:00 Jordan Tetting Technical and bleak data on a crucial topic. This book has a more in-depth data-rich perspective than Blood & Oil, but it leaves less of an impact. You'll will not find moral or intellectual arguments in this book, just solid empirical information in a well written and organized book.
