The Prize: The Epic Quest for Oil, Money & Power di Daniel Yergin

Fascinating history of the oil business. Did you know that supply and demand for oil didn't reach equalibrium until 1970? That explains the disappearance of full service, free road maps, etc.

The Prize: The Epic Quest for Oil, Money & Power di Daniel Yergin

This is an excellent book and one I recommend. It is a history of oil and the oil industry, covering about 150 years. If you want to learn about the evolution of oil and how it affects our world, then this is a super place to start.

Daniel Yergin divided his book into four distinct sections, which help you understand the phases of the oil industry. The tale began with discoveries, entrepreneurs, and growth from industries like automotive.

Then, he moved to World War I and Churchill's promotion of oil as a fuel in place of coal. It was then that coal truly became international. Daniel Yergin perfectly explained the importance of oil to a country's geopolitical strength and energy security.

What is missing? The role that traders like Marc Rich played in the industry.

I hope someone - or Daniel - writes a sequel.… (altro)

The New Map: Energy, Climate, and the Clash of Nations di Daniel Yergin

I found the historical sections the most interesting. I've lived through the more recent geopolitics, which made that part feel like a rehashing of recent headlines. OTOH, this was an informative, comprehensive overview of important topics and how the world has gotten to where it is.
