评论
出版商概要
"With a keen eye and grim wit, McQuaiq's perceptive inquiry into the world's energy system strips away layer after layer of deceit, cynicism, racism, sordid manipulation, violence and aggression, in the dedicated effort to extract every possible ounce of profit and power in a race to the edge of disaster, perhaps beyond. It is an urgent wake-up call that should -- that must -- be read and acted upon, without delay."
--Noam Chomsky
"McQuaig gives the reader an entertaining, highly educational and deliciously written crash course on the history of the oil industry."
--"The Gazette "(Montreal)
"Linda McQuaig might well be described as Canada's Michael Moore."
--"National Post"
"McQuaig hits the nail on the head when she tackles the question of why the United States is so concerned about oil."
--"The Globe and Mail"
"Rivals Naomi Klein's No Logo and Naomi Wolf's Fire With Fire for changing the way we live now."
--Heather Mallick, "The Globe and Mail"
