'Succeeds in simplifying the myriad of complex issues bearing on the exhaustibility question posed for all minerals including oil and gas. . . .Provides a good overview for the layman of resource economics right back to Malthus.' The Journal of Energy Literature '[This book] should be required reading for all interested in resource depletion issues.' International Energy Law & Taxation Review 'Inspiring . . . gives an excellent and clear review of the debate. . . . I strongly recommend this book to practitioners, academics, and policymakers concerned with how we should deal with non-renewable resources in the future.' Minerals & Energy 'John Tilton�s aim . . . is to provide a concise primer on the long-run availability of mineral resources for those who are not resource economists or specialists in related fields. He achieves this objective admirably with a logical exposition that blends historical, theoretical, and empirical elements of the ongoing debate together in an appealing way.'
