The Book

The Quest: Energy, Security, and the Remaking of the Modern World presents a gripping account of the quest for the energy that our modern world needs. Daniel Yergin continues the riveting story begun in his Pulitzer Prize–winning book, The Prize. A master storyteller as well as a leading energy expert, Yergin shows us how energy is an engine of global political and economic change. The Quest is a story that spans the energies on which our society has been built and the new resources that are competing to replace them.
