His books discussed the fossil fuel market fundamentals and the place of the Arab world within that; they also examined the political influences, culture issues, the status of democracy, the militarization in the Arab world, the interplay between oil and natural gas; then finally, the issues of climate change and alternative energy were explored in detail.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis third book picks up the story, five years later, examining the status of the industry and the impact of that seismic event, the Covid-19 pandemic. The questions considered  here are in relation to the Arab worldÕs management of its oil and natural gas wealth, wondering if the Arabs have Ômissed the boatÕ? Also, can they find a place in the new energy world, where energy transition is rapidly transforming behaviour and attitudes?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Basel Asmar","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44310393651361,"sku":"9780956736826","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0462\/1120\/3233\/files\/72yv8p-front-shortedge-384_690df974-ef40-4dd9-b5f3-246d95287799.jpg?v=1748237461","url":"https:\/\/bookswholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/fossil-fuels-in-the-arab-world-missed-the-boat","provider":"BooksWholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
