Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars An excellent starting point for research into oil companies in Nigeria   May 16, 2008
This book gives a good background of the issues raised by oil and gas exploration in Nigeria. Using Shell as a case study. The findings apply to all other Multinational Corporations in the area.
Any researcher on these questions should start with this book.



4 out of 5 stars An eye opening investigation into Shells activities   July 29, 2004
 8 out of 10 found this review helpful

As an ex employee in the petrochem sector I was involved with several projects based in Nigeria and I found this book a fascinating insight into Shell's behaviour at the corporate level. It is a well reasearced and comprehensive book detailing Shell's ruthless approach to enviromental issues and political activists in the Nigerian Delta. It is a devastating account of what is seen as one of the more 'friendly' multinationals, with a no holds barred expose of Shells manipulation of the government/military of Nigeria. A worthwhile read for anyone interested in enviromental issues, Nigeria's exploitation and anyone who believes Shell is enviromentally friendly.
