Twilight in the Desert by Matthew R. Simmons

A detailed examination of Saudi oil production, global energy security and the economic risks created by long-term uncertainty over future supply.

From Dad's Collection

This copy comes from my dad's personal collection. Dad was an actor and scriptwriter with a genuine interest in politics, economics and the wider forces influencing governments, markets and everyday life. His collection remains an important part of Kate's Treasures15, with each book now looking for a new home where it can continue to be read and appreciated.

Written by Matthew R. Simmons, Twilight in the Desert: The Coming Saudi Oil Shock and the World Economy examines Saudi Arabia's oil production and the assumptions underpinning global energy markets.

Drawing on production data and long-term trends, Simmons explores the risks associated with declining output and considers how dependence on a major oil-producing nation could affect economies, government policy and international stability.

A thought-provoking choice for readers interested in energy policy, geopolitics, global economics and the relationship between natural resources and political power.
