Packed with fascinating facts and insight, Oil: A Beginner’s Guide is unique in bringing together so many different aspects of the oil story. From geology and economics to alternative energy sources once oil has run out, Smil’s comprehensive introduction will fuel dinner party debate, and provide readers with the science and politics behind the world’s most controversial resource.
