Book Club summary #10 - Why Your World is About to Get a Whole Lot… Smaller
In light of the company’s focus (energy) a decision was made to cover a few books about the energy sector. Jeff Rubin’s wordily-titled book on the subject of peak oil — or at least, peak cheap oil — was chosen as the first volume of what has turned out to be (thus far) a trilogy.
Since few of us can relate handily to the volume of a barrel of oil (about 160 litres), and thus price-per-barrel numbers are somewhat abstract, the book review includes Litre-equivalent-prices to accompany the per-barrel figures. While numbers like $80 / barrel sound expensive ($80 is a fair amount of cash after all), putting this in the perspective of it being 50 cents per Litre, provides valuable context.
As always, if you find the summary useful, please consider supporting the author by purchasing the book.
