Reviews
From the reviews: "In his book, Peeking at Peak Oil physicist Kjell Aleklett explores the science and consequences behind the sobering reality that the world's oil production is entering terminal decline with no satisfactory alternatives. ... Using simple language and engaging illustrations, Aleklett's Peeking at Peak Oil leaves readers with a clear and comprehensive understanding of the emerging issue of our time." (Sustainable Guernsey, June, 2012) "It is...refreshing to find a comprehensive, peak oil analysis that relies on rigorous scientific methods and empirical data rather than resorting to anecdotes, doomsday prophesies and red herrings....this book should be required reading for anyone seriously interested in the future world energy market and economy, especially politicians and policymakers....Aleklett's analysis is meticulous, his results are convincing, and the implications are sobering....The book also contains a wealth of information and can serve as a basic primer on global oil industry....This book has enough to interest both novices and oil industry veterans." (Roger H. Bezdek, World Oil , April 2012) "In the book, Peeking at Peak Oil, that is released today in Uppsala, Aleklett summarises very thoroughly his ten years of work studying and trying to view the entirety of our oil-supply situation....In the book's rich collection of tables and figures Aleklett shows how companies, nations and even international energy organisations such as the OECD-based IEA have - intentionally or otherwise - made erroneous assessments." (Kersti Kollberg, Energy Bulletin, 11 June 2012, http://energybulletin.net/stories/2012-06-12/oil-and-future-thorough-work) "The book factually shows that although fossil fuel consumption in industrial countries has somewhat leveled off, the demand for it in the rest of the world, China and India in particular, is rapidly rising. ... the author discusses growing concerns within the governments of exporting and importing countries as well as giant oil companies. ... A must read for those interested in energy and its future. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All levels/libraries." (J.

Synopsis
This book examines the major social and economic impacts of the Peak of the Oil Age. It explains everything you need to know to understand Peak Oil and its world-changing consequences from an insider's perspective., The term "Peak Oil" was born in January 2001 when Colin Campbell formed the Association for the Study of Peak Oil & Gas (ASPO). Now, Peak Oil is used thousands of times a day by journalists, politicians, industry leaders, economists, scientists and countless others around the globe. Peak Oil is not the end of oil but it tells us the end is in sight. Anyone interested in food production, economic growth, climate change or global security needs to understand this new reality. In Peeking at Peak Oil Professor Kjell Aleklett, President of ASPO International and head of the world's leading research group on Peak Oil, describes the decade-long journey of Peak Oil from extremist fringe theory to today's accepted fact: Global oil production is entering terminal decline. He explains everything you need to know about Peak Oil and its world-changing consequences from an insider's perspective. In simple steps, Kjell tells us how oil is formed, discovered and produced. He uses science to reveal the errors and deceit of national and international oil authorities, companies and governments too terrified to admit the truth. He describes his personal involvement in the intrigues of the past decade. What happens when a handful of giant oil fields containing two thirds of our planet's oil become depleted? Will major oil consumers such as the EU and US face rationing within a decade? Will oil producing nations conserve their own oil when they realize that no one can export oil to them in the future? Does Peak Oil mean Peak Economic Growth? If you want to know the real story about energy today and what the future has in store, then you need to be "Peeking at Peak Oil".
