Profit from the Peak: The End of Oil and the Greatest Investment Event of the Century (Angel Series)

Customer Reviews

a poor book... - By: A. P., 11 Aug 2008
A trite book. It starts off with a long-winded introduction on peak oil, too basic for most people who would consider buying this read in the first place. And rather than being the main subject of the book, alternative energy investment is relegated to succint end-of-chapter notes on possible (mostly US) stock picks.

Also, the authors' continual jingoistic references to the US & sentimental appeals to American enterpreneurship & ingenuity make this an irritating read at times, & so does the occasional anti-Chinese bias. Rather than for an international audience with an interest in the matter, it looks like Hicks & Nelder wrote their treatise principallly to paint alternatives to Oil as a patriotic choice for an audience of Texas rednecks.

There are some fairly good bits but alll in alll, it isn't a read that I can recommend.
