Description
Maddow "offers a dark, serpentine ... tour of the ... oil-and-gas industry, [taking] us on a switchback journey around the globe--from Oklahoma City to Siberia to Equatorial Guinea--exposing the [what she sees as the] greed and incompetence of Big Oil and Gas. She shows how Russia's rich reserves of crude have, paradoxically, stunted its growth, forcing Putin to maintain his power by spreading Russia's rot into its rivals, its neighbors, the United States, and the West's most important alliances. Chevron, BP, and a host of other industry players get their star turn, but ExxonMobil and Rex Tillerson [are cast] as two of the past century's most consequential corporate villains"--,Provided by publisher.
