Critics Review

Strahan’s an excellent guide, providing readable, well-explained arguments for putting this subject atop the agenda - Sue Baker, Publishing News

People need to get hold of this, read it, pass it on and then do something positive with the valuable knowledge they have gained -

This is a well researched and documented book and David Strahan pulls no punches in his analysis of the world’s impending energy problems. Not everyone will agree with every word but I commend it as a really good and informative read on a topic that affects us all - Lord Oxburgh, former Chairman of Shell

This book can be considered a primer for people who are new to peak oil, but also old hands will find it worth reading for its useful insights - Ugo Bardi, Energy Bulletin
