"An interesting and impressive book on an important subject."
--Anya Schiffrin

Director of Journalism Programs at the Initiative for Policy Dialogue at Columbia University

"There has been no hotter market than oil--the commodity and the industry--and this book provides much useful information on the current and future situation.
A cogent analysis, it sheds much light on some of the major issues facing the industry--and investors--today.
A good read from a much-practiced journalist."
--Michael C. Lynch President, Strategic Energy and Economic Research Inc.

"Black Gold lays out in easy-to-read language the peak oil argument and outlines why the debate over peak oil is becoming so intense. Orwel explains why oil is, indeed, black gold and highlights the investment implications of peak oil."
--Matt Simmons
