The Routledge handbook of energy security

With oil prices still on the high side after the loss of Libyan supply and with the Fukushima disaster emboldening some governments to phase out nuclear power, energy security concerns continue to occupy centre stage in many of today’s public debates. This new handbook on energy security, edited by Benjamin Sovacool of the National University of Singapore, could thus not have come at a better time. It is a comprehensive and in many respects innovative approach to the subject, which will undoubtedly make it a standard work of reference for researchers and practitioners engaged in the field.
