Can't get enough vaclav. His "Beginner's Guide" series is incredible. Vaclav's Beginniner's Guide is not like "Oil for Dummies," it's more like "Here's everything you need to know about oil for those *beginning* to fully rebuild civilization from scratch after the apocalypse"

I think this book should be any university mandatory course. It is "The Bitcoin Standard" for energy. You will not get a better intro and then go the path of your choice to dog deeper.

Smil is one of my favorite authors, and this is his masterpiece. He lays out how our need for energy has shaped human history—from the era of donkey-powered mills to today’s quest for renewable energy. It’s not the easiest book to read, but at the end you’ll feel smarter and better informed about how energy innovation alters the course of civilizations.
