How Energy Abundance Is Remaking Power Beyond the Age of Conventional Oil

Key Issues in Environment and Sustainability

Key Issues

Transforming Social and Energy Systems

With one famous equation, E=mc2, Einstein proved all matter can be described as energy. It is everywhere and everything. ‘There is no author whose books I look forward to more than Vaclav Smil.’ Bill Gates Turn on a light. Start the car. Boil water. Eat. Move. Breathe. Everything is energy. But what exactly is it? And how can we best harness it without destroying the planet in the process? Renowned scientist Vaclav Smil explores energy in all its facets – from the inner workings of the human body to the rise of modern industry and the race for more efficient and eco-friendly fuels. From the laws of thermodynamics to the latest developments in wind, solar and geothermal power, Energy: A Short History sheds light on the invisible network of energy that shapes all our lives, and how our daily decisions affect energy consumption.

El Arte de la Guerra Aplicado a la Vida Moderna

Durante siglos, El arte de la guerra de Sun Tzu ha sido leído como uno de los grandes textos de estrategia de todos los tiempos. Aunque nació en un contexto militar, sus enseñanzas siguen vivas porque hablan de algo mucho más amplio que la guerra: la inteligencia frente al conflicto, la importancia de conocer el terreno, el dominio emocional, la preparación silenciosa y la capacidad de vencer sin destruir.Este libro traslada la sabiduría de Sun Tzu a la vida moderna. Sus páginas no invitan a vivir en guerra contra los demás, sino a comprender mejor los conflictos antes de que nos arrastren. En los negocios, en las negociaciones, en las relaciones personales, en el liderazgo, en el dinero, en el trabajo y en las decisiones importantes, muchas victorias empiezan mucho antes del enfrentamiento visible.Aquí descubrirás por qué conocerte a ti mismo es la primera batalla, por qué entender al adversario no significa odiarlo, por qué la posición puede importar más que la fuerza, por qué actuar en el momento exacto puede cambiarlo todo y por qué muchas guerras inútiles se ganan simplemente evitando entrar en ellas.El Arte de la Guerra Aplicado a la Vida Moderna es una obra para quienes desean pensar con más claridad, decidir con más calma y moverse por el mundo con menos ingenuidad. Una reflexión profunda sobre estrategia, poder, autocontrol y libertad interior.Porque la verdadera victoria no siempre consiste en derrotar a alguien.A veces consiste en comprender tan bien el tablero que el conflicto deja de gobernarnos.

Lecciones de Sun Tzu para pensar, negociar y vencer sin luchar

Cheap Power Will Solve the Climate Crisis Within a Century

More Energy, Clean Planet

Deep beneath fracking’s endless headlines—some good, some bad—lies a business fraught with risk and resilience, greed and grace…and unrelenting madness. The missteps, the abysmal timing, the pitiful, stumbling overreach, none were recent developments. All were part of an early onset failure, all wired into my DNA from the start. The symptom that was my fledgling frack company, but the cause, the reason, that was all me. I’ll make a hurried, overly zealous decision to do something, then just do it. I’ll assume that if I do, I’ll land on my feet. The bedrock of all my assumptions has always been Why shouldn’t I land on my feet? Why though? Why so damned cavalier? It is because I am an entrepreneur. I’m not necessarily proud of it, either, this inescapable disarrangement, irrepressible and agitating against authority, seeking difficulty over ease, naivety over season. It’s the same bullheadedness that marks all entrepreneurs; our cacophonous, messy catchall of a group which, by all reasonable standards, is a shit-poor group to belong to. “Of Roughnecks and Riches is a dramatic dive into an energy revolution that has upended the nation and the world…it’s a rollicking ride that makes for a compelling read.” –Gregory Zuckerman, Special Writer, the Wall Street Journal and bestselling author of The Frackers, among others.

"We Fight for Oil" is a seminal investigation into the high-stakes geopolitical struggle for control over the world's petroleum resources. Written at a pivotal moment in the early 20th century, Ludwell Denny provides a detailed account of the "oil war" between the United States and Great Britain, illustrating how the quest for liquid gold reshaped international diplomacy and economic policy following the First World War.The work delves into the aggressive expansionism of major oil corporations and the strategic maneuvers of world powers as they sought to secure future energy supplies in the Middle East, South America, and beyond. Denny examines the transition of global power, arguing that the nation that controls oil effectively controls the future of industrial and military dominance. This book offers a fascinating look at the origins of modern resource-based conflict and the economic tensions that defined the interwar era.Through rigorous reporting and sharp analysis, Denny exposes the hidden machinations of diplomats and industry titans.
