A perverse book on the business of oil. Perverse if you don't believe in aristocracy, corporate manipulation, imperialism, and plain old exploitation.

A timeless comprehensive study done by an expert, published by the time of the so-called "oil crisis" of the mid-nineteen-seventies; unmasking the oil industry's politics, economics and technical aspects. Top priority for any well informed person, in order to know, how the "free" market has been circumvented by the best kept secret conspiracy of all times, between major producers and giant distributors at the expense of domestic and foreign consumers. There is no such thing as an oil shortage, that's a lie.
