Rezensionen

"New technologies and social pressures are transforming the world's energy markets. Andreas Goldthau makes sense of this shifting landscape in this invaluable new Handbook on global energy policy. It offers the big picture as well as excellent new essays focused on key topics oil exploration and production contracts, fiscal regimes for natural resource exporters, and the emerging tensions between food and the production of biofuels. Particularly interesting is the Handbook's treatment of emerging topics in the global natural gas industry and the possible future roles for renewable energy supplies. Throughout it is balanced and well-informed." -- David Victor, University of California, San Diego
