Oil prices have been on a roller coaster ride for the past few years, with prices swinging from over $100 per barrel in 2014 to below $30 per barrel in 2016. This volatility has had a major impact on the global economy, and it is likely to continue for the foreseeable future.

In this book, the author provides a comprehensive analysis of the history and future of boom-bust oil prices, with a focus on the role of global energy. He argues that the current volatility in oil prices is a result of a number of factors, including the rise of unconventional oil production, the slowdown in global economic growth, and the changing geopolitical landscape.
