Oil

By Debra A. Miller

Book Overview

The U.S. consumes more oil than any other country, 1.85 billion barrels per day. This anthology contains a diverse collection of essays about oil production and consumption. Taken together, they offer a complete array of important conservative, liberal, and centrist views on issues relating to petroleum reserves, the petroleum industry, and energy consumption. Disparate viewpoints of complex issues are encapsulated in each chapter with the use of a question-and-response format. Important facts, perfect for report writing, are dispersed throughout in eye-catching boxed insets.
