Fossil Fuels in the Arab World: Facts and Fiction – Global and Arab Insights of Oil, Natural Gas & Coal

New book dispels the myths and clarifies the facts about the dependence of the world on the Arab oil and gas.

Will the turmoil in the Arab world have severe consequences on global energy security? Is the Arab world an indispensable energy source without which civilisation will come to a halt and collapse? Is this the reason causing continuous political and military meddling in the Arab world’s affairs, and is being used by democratic western leaders to support autocratic and authoritarian Arab governments to stay in power? Is the apparent change in policy only superficial due to the Arab uprisings of 2011, yet in reality it is still being maintained discretely? Is the world really this vulnerable? Does our civilisation rely for its energy supplies on what happens in one unstable region in the world?

To paint a true picture of mankind’s dependence on fossil fuels, particularly oil, and to assess the position of the Arab world in this picture, the above questions and more are answered by analysing not only oil, but the three types of fossil fuels: oil, natural gas, and coal, which are in essence convertible, Fossil fuels are tackled from two main angles; the first angle is the need to clarify the terminology and the terms used by the media, the politicians, the scientists, and the so-called experts, when discussing oil, natural gas and coal, while the second angle is to evaluate the hard facts and separate them from fiction by analysing the numbers and scrutinise them impartially to come with a definitive quantitative answer. Finally, a further investigation examines fossil fuels in relation to alternative energy, and from a political perspective.

This comprehensive book is written in a non-technical style to appeal both to the non-expert with no prior knowledge of oil, natural gas or coal, as well as oil and gas experts, who require detailed analysis of fossil fuels availability and future in the Arab world.

The book is now available worldwide at reputable bookstores and online book retailers.
