This makes the book highly accessible to students studying the oil industry for the first time, and general readers trying to make some sense of the changing nature of the oil industry and the way in which it influences their lives." - KLEIO A Journal of Historical Studies from Africa "[A]n interesting introduction to a very large topic....The Politics of the Global Oil Industry gives the reader a place to start in trying to understand these issues." - Political Science Quarterly "[T]his book is accessible to students and lay readers. Another strength is the authors' demonstrable familiarity with and insight into the political impact of oil in various countries....[a] ready reference work for readers not conversant with the conventional highlights of global oil politics." - HISTORY
