The book was conceived as an attempt to understand the formation of the energy picture of the world and to talk about the problems of modern energy.
Despite the incredible complexity of the topic, the book is written in simple and understandable language and reads more than just fascinating. For example, already in the preface to his book Daniel Yergin explains very clearly the relationship between any social crisis in the Gulf countries and the instantaneous rise in oil prices around the world, and also talks about the political power and benefits that access to energy sources gives to a country, what security guarantees it provides and what responsibility it implies. You will learn: - The path of development of nuclear energy after World War II; - Features of the world oil map formed after the collapse of the Soviet Union; - The importance of renewable energy for the global economy of the 21st century; - The transformation of the U.S. natural gas market as a result of George Mitchell's "shale boom"; - The search for new energy sources; - The mutual influence of environmental issues and energy.
