This entertaining and informative book is a must read for anyone interested in investing, in energy, or in corporate thought leadership. This is a great book, well done, page turner

Doug's story is not just about making accurate predictions; it's about having the courage to stand by one's convictions in the face of immense pressure.

Lewis RoppSenior Managing Director, Portfolio Manager at Barrow Hanley Global Investors

Doug’s super power is that he is willing to go against consensus at the right time. He had a great knack for capturing investor and CEO attention by thinking strategically about the direction of the energy industry at a time when many investors became more short-term in nature.
