Mr Maxwell speaks from the coal-face, please excuse the pun. However he also maintains altitude, keeping strategic perspectives. It is like a concise encyclopaedia for those wanting to be in the real world. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent! *by D***H on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 November 2023* This book is a real page-turner. Excuisit language and seldom available insight. It makes the reader feel as if (s)he were a proverbial fly on a wall watching big business and finance. The reader may 'recognise' some stories that "hit the press", but the book takes you also "behind the curtains" of the event. Simply excellent! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Thought-provoking & worrying analysis of global power struggles over energy & resources. *by M***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 February 2024* This is an informative guide to the recent history & current situation regarding global competition for resources, and the fact that the climate is being pushed to the edge by weak political leadership and national vested interests. I found the book depressing for 2 main reasons - firstly I had no idea that so much energy was lost from extraction to end-user, and secondly that governments are putting nowhere near enough effort into getting energy efficiency the primary goal. We waste about two-thirds of the energy produced to get it to the plug, and then waste more by our own inabilities to use energy efficiently. There seems no hope to me that this will end well for the planet & its bio-diversity. I have only scored the book a 4 because all the charts & diagrams in it are in black & white & in a tiny font - they are close to impossible to read. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Edge: How competition for resources is pushing the world, and its climate, to the brink - and what we can do about it. - How Big Things Get Done: The Surprising Factors That Determine the Fate of Every Project, from Home Renovations to Space Exploration and Everything In Between --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/551969420-the-edge-how-competition-for-resources-is-pushing-the-world](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/551969420-the-edge-how-competition-for-resources-is-pushing-the-world) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
