The New Map: Energy, Climate, and the Clash of Nations by Daniel Yergin
4.0
So, my CEO gave all the employees this book last year and I finally got around to reading it. I'm glad I did. You can see how this book influenced her decisions or her thinking on decisions for the future of our company. This book was informative and interesting, especially in my industry. And a little bit prophetic with what's happening with Ukraine and Russia and China. I love the way it was organized and the history given. I do love the talk about climate and how it effects are industry and what companies (like mine) are doing to help.
There was some repeated information and sometimes you can get lost with all the facts thrown at you. Also, sometimes, he was too broad or taking leaps with his conclusions. I'm sorry but the Syrian refugee crisis was not a big contributing factor (or even at all) to BREXIT and the populist nationalism in some European countries were already happening due to big terrorist attacks that happened before Syrians flooded the borders.
But if you truly want to learn about the oil and gas industry and our future without judgment or criticism, this is the book for you. If you want to learn about what's going on in the world and how certain things are changing the map of those countries, this is also the book for you.
