|a "Since the 1973-1974 Arab oil embargo, oil-rich outlaw nations have become petroaggessors and used a valuable natural resource as a weapon in global politics. Seizing Power takes a look at Putin, Chavez, Ahmadinejad, and other key players whose hunger for power and money has framed some stark choices. Where should the ethical person stand in the fight to maintain affordable energy, keep the planet green, implement ethical business policies, and guard basic human rights? New York Times best-selling author Robert Slater lays out the alternatives. In a climate of dwindling oil, only by being realistic about energy options can readers make informed choices"--Provided by publisher.
