?This [book] has some virtues to recommend it. It is analytical. It
refuses blanket condemnation or blanket praise for OPEC, the oil
companies, or the oil-consuming countries. Ghosh (Rutgers) does
tend to sympathize with the OPEC countries: he roots for the
underdogs and is impressed with their handling of the oil industry;
but the book is documented with lots of statistical tables to
permit readers to make their own judgments. Treatment is
historical, that is, Ghosh traces the actual development of the
industry, OPEC, and the responses of the oil consumers.?-Choice
