Produktbeschreibung
The oil business has never been truly a market, where prices are determined by simple supply and demand. Instead it is distorted by long lead times, a producer cartel, subsidies and a lack of true alternatives. Jonathan Lamb argues that this is all changing.

Oil prices are driven more by market forces than ever before, making high prices unsustainable, potentially good news for consumers, if not the planet.
