Oilcraft: The Myth of Scarcity and Security That Haunt U.S. Energy Policy

byRobert Vitalis

In Oilcraft, Robert Vitalis presents a historical account centered on the Myth of Scarcity and Security That Haunt U.S. Energy Policy. The book builds its explanation through key episodes, competing interests, and the setting supplied by the connected fields of history and political science. The result avoids a single easy lesson, emphasizing instead how circumstances, institutions, and individual choices interacted over time. Readers finish with a sharper understanding of the subject and why its consequences still deserve attention. The approach makes a specialized subject understandable without stripping away its tensions or ambiguity.
