The book delves into the profound social, political, and environmental ramifications of oil dependence, particularly highlighted by the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. Peter Maass explores the "resource curse" affecting oil-producing nations, revealing how oil exacerbates existing issues while creating new challenges. Through compelling narratives from diverse figures such as rebels, royalty, and environmentalists across countries like Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, and Iraq, it offers a striking examination of the complex and often troubling landscape shaped by the global reliance on oil.
