Product Description
The Caspian is a region, which holds the world's largest unexploited oil and mineral resources, where the break-up of the Soviet Union has created a security vacuum. The area is surrounded by old and new states seeking to utilize their natural wealth to launch their people into the twenty-first century. This book collects essays by contributors from the countries around the Caspian as well as by British experts in a frank and fruitful discussion of the region's problems and the need for a united approach to building mutual confidence and security.

'This is a stimulating and informative book about an exciting region full of opportunities for the bold and the clever. It is a book best dipped into but should not be missed by anyone with an interest in the region.' - The Journal of Energy Literature
'This impeccably designed volume is very timely, as a sharp spike in oil prices brings international attention yet again to the potential sources of supply in the Caspian areas.' - Journal of Peace Research
