The Absent Superpower: The Shale Revolution and a World Without America by Peter Zeihan

4.0

The Unending Grasp For Power

This was a captivating read that delved into the world of energy, politics, and economics. Zeihan did an excellent job of thoroughly researching and presenting his findings in a concise and easy-to-understand manner.

One of the most significant takeaways from the book is how the shale revolution has impacted the global balance of power, and how it has caused America to become less reliant on foreign energy sources. This shift in energy dependence has far-reaching implications that Zeihan explores in great detail, including the impact on the U.S. military and its involvement in foreign policy.

Despite its heavy subject matter, the book was the perfect length and kept me engaged throughout. It's a must-read for anyone interested in foreign policy and economics, and I highly recommend it.

Zeihan's insights are important and thought-provoking, and will leave readers with a new understanding of the complex relationships that shape our world.

Overall, I suggest this to anyone looking for a deeper understanding of the geopolitical landscape - you should pick up a copy!

3.8/5
