The Tyranny of Oil: The World's Most Powerful Industry--And What We Must Do to Stop It - Paperback
by Antonia Juhasz (Author)
"Juhasz bravely and expertly exposes the inner workings of an industry and a government riddled with secrets, lies, and deception."
--Daniel Ellsberg, author of Secrets: A Memoir of Vietnam and the Pentagon Papers
In the tradition of the Academy Award-winning documentary An Inconvenient Truth, Antonia Juhasz's The Tyranny of Oil offers a chilling exposé of the modern American oil industry and its dire abuse of power. A leading international trade and finance policy expert and the author of The Bush Agenda, Juhasz presents eye-opening truths about a potentially catastrophic global energy crisis that only promises to get much worse in the coming years--and provides possible solutions for meaningful change. Terry Tamminen, former Secretary of the California Environmental Protection Agency, calls The Tyranny of Oil "a bold blueprint for ending the madness," and the Christian Science Monitor tells us, "a good first step toward true energy independence is to read this insightful book."
Who's really driving oil and gas prices? How much oil is left? How far will Big Oil go to get it, and at what cost to the environment, human rights, the economy, worker safety, public health, and democracy?
Here, at last, are the answers we've been looking for--and the inside story on Big Oil.
In The Tyranny of Oil, Antonia Juhasz investigates the true state of the companies collectively known as Big Oil, uncovering their unparalleled global financial power, their political dominance, and their increasingly destructive plans for the future. And she tells us what we can do about it.
A tool for meaningful change that blends history, original investigative research and reporting, candid interviews with key insiders, and a unique focus on activism, The Tyranny of Oil is required reading for every concerned global citizen.
