The analysis is based on solid research, and the recommendations are well-written, well-organized, and cogently argued. A valuable contribution on an urgent subject. -- Strobe Talbott, President of the Brookings Institution and former U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Jan Kalicki and David Goldwyn have gotten the nation's and the world's leading energy experts to focus in a masterful and coherent way on the geo-political, economic, and environmental implications of the revolutionary changes in the global energy picture. This essential new edition describes how the U.S. has moved from being increasingly dependent upon oil imports to likely a net exporter of energy in coming years, due to a surge of domestic oil and gas production, greater energy efficiency, and increased use of solar and wind energy. For the first time in just one place, Jan and David provide an examination of the broader meaning of these profound changes to our nation's security and to our everyday lives. In the process, they have provided a profound service to the nation and to the world. -- Ambassador Stuart E. Eizenstat, former U.S.Deputy Secretary of the Treasury, Under Secretary of State, Under Secretary of Commerce, U.S. Ambassador to the European Union, and Chief White House Domestic Policy Adviser to President Jimmy Carter Required reading for those seeking to understand the strategic-level importance of energy interests and economics in the area of foreign policy. It will have a valued place on my desk. -- Maria van der Hoeven, Executive Director, International Energy Agency In the eight years since the publication of the first edition of this book, there has been a profound change in the landscape for the U.S. oil and gas industry, an eastward shift in the global energy sector, and challenges to the environment from energy output and demand. The illustrious array of international energy experts contributing to the second edition provides a thorough, insightful, and compelling analysis of the new challenges and opportunities facing the world energy community today. -- Abdalla Salem El Badri, Secretery General of OPEC Essential reading for policy makers in both energy consuming and energy producing countries. -- Claude Mandil, former Executive Director, International Energy Agency, reviewing a previous edition or volume
