What They're Saying
Critics Review
`One of the functions of law is to take a concept, like energy security, and reduce it to its legally significant components. Many of the essays in Energy Security contibute to this process significantly… Energy Security has made a valuable contribution to the development of what could become a key concept for evaluating the health of the energy sector. This collection of essays provides the attorney or economist interested in energy security with much to consider… When someone undertakes such a treatise, Energy Security will provide an important starting point.’ James Chalker, Esquire, Pennsylvania USA
