I just finished reading $20 Per Gallon, by Christopher Steiner. The books takes you on a journey of increasing costs of gasoline, steps you through each stage of increases, and shows how the author believes our lives will be affected. Although the author shows the many benefits of increasing fuel costs (shorter commutes, more nuclear less extended families, more local business, less pollution), he’s not shy about providing glimpses into the pain we would suffer during these adjustments. An excellent read, the author is clear, entertaining, and thought provoking. My wife and I took turns reading to each other before bed, and enjoyed the experience.
