Chapter Chapter 1 in The World of Energy, 2020, pp 1-4 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Energy has been front and center on the world stage ever since the Arab Oil Embargo on the West in the early 1970s following the Arab—Israeli Yom Kippur War. The oil embargo threw the West into panic, which was used to cheap oil, with mile long queues at gas stations (petrol pumps) to fill up a tank of gasoline (petrol) as if the end of oil was near.
