"Yet to truly grasp the scope of the crisis looming before them, 
Americans must retrace their seemingly ordinary tankful of gasoline back 
to its shadowy sources. This is, in effect, a journey into the heart of 
America's vast and troubled oil dependency. And what it exposes is a 
globe-spanning energy network that today is so fragile, so beholden to 
hostile powers and so clearly unsustainable, that our car-centered 
lifestyle seems more at risk than ever."
