about book:
"In this solid, if pedestrian, survey of world energy issues, Moroney (economics, Texas A&M Univ.) argues that oil, natural gas, and coal--fuels now representing 85 percent of all energy consumed around the globe--will continue to dominate despite predicted depletion of world reserves."–Library Journal

"Moroney's book is timely and to the point. It explains the world situation on oil, natural gas and coal in a clear and precise manner. The discussion of climate change is relevant and in line with mainstream science. I highly recommend the book to anyone wanting to know more about the whole subject."–Gerald R. North, Oceanography Department, Texas A&M University

"Few issues will be as important for world leaders as global energy consumption and production, and Professor Moroney illustrates the complexity of commercial energy in the 21 51 Century. His detailed presentation effectively communicates the challenges presented by ever-increasing global demand for traditional fossil fuels and I commend him for tackling this critical topic."–Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison
