Geophysicist M. King Hubbert predicted in 1956 that U.S. oil production would reach its highest level in the early 1970s. Though roundly criticized by oil experts and economists, Hubbert`s prediction came true in 1970. In this revised and updated edition reflecting the latest information on the world supply of oil, Kenneth Deffeyes uses Hubbert`s methods to find that world oil production will peak in this decade and there isn`t anything we can do to stop it. While long-term solutions exist in the form of conservation and alternative energy sources, they probably cannot and almost certainly will not be enacted in time to evade a short-term catastrophe.
