Title: A policy of discontent
Description: "This book is a documentary spanning 65 years of U.S. energy policy, covering deregulation of the oil, gas, and electric power industries from an insider's perspective." "Energy - electric, oil and gas, coal, nuclear, renewable - powers the United States and the rest of the industrialized world. It also "powers" political upheavals, wars, and seemingly endless quests for the "right" energy strategy that will make sense of it all.".

"Vito Stagliano's book represents the history and comprehensive analysis of 65 years of energy policy-making with an insider's view of the four years invested by the White house and Congress to the making of the Energy Policy Act of 1992 - the last comprehensive energy legislation enacted by Congress.

Placed in the context of U.S. energy policy-making since the New Deal, Stagliano presents a case study against which can be assessed the newly released energy policy of the Bush Administration."--BOOK JACKET.
