The power surge : energy, opportunity, and the battle for America's future / Michael Levi. - New York : Oxford University Press, ©2013. - 1 online resource (vi, 260 pages)
"A Council on Foreign Relations book."
Includes bibliographical references and index.
The battle for the future of American energy -- "The barbarians are at the door" -- Energy independence on the horizon -- "Game over" -- The car of the future -- "Win, win, win, win" -- Wild cards -- The energy opportunity.
The United States is in the throes of two unfolding energy revolutions, and partisans-convinced that only their side holds the key to American prosperity, security, and safety-are battling over which one should prevail. In The Power Surge, Michael Levi takes readers inside these revolutions to find out what's really happening-and which side is right. From the back roads of Ohio where old friends are warring over fracking, to the wilds of Colorado where speculators are chasing the holy grail of oil, he shows how oil and gas production, after decades in decline, are being propelled upward by new.
