Recensioner i media

"This timely volume is a valuable addition to the literature on world oil markets and particularly on the important issue of US dependence on foreign oil and how the country should deal with it. In a presidential election year, this issue will no doubt take center stage, given soaring oil prices. Duffield explains the subject well, making the book accessible to all readers." - CHOICE
