My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars

I had to stop reading this and return it to the library. I only just got it back, and now I have finished it. I will freely admit I breezed through this book, as one often does with something you agree with. The author's discussion of the links between oil prices and everything else- education and status of women, religious extremism, development of a country's human resources, democracy, etc, sound far fetched when I tried to summarize it to some one later, but seemed logical and well supported while I was reading. His ideas about China, India and the role of the US as an ideological leader were also thought provoking.
But this is from me, a person who was glad when gas prices were high, and who is excited about the new leadership in this country.
