''The Myth of the Oil Crisis'' by Robin M. Mills<ref>http://oilcrisismyth.com/</ref> is a 2008 book extensively documenting how "peak oil" theories are based on flawed assumptions and discredited science.  Mills asserts that unconventional oil resources are much larger than conventional oil sources and have barely been developed at this point, leaving hundreds of years of oil yet to extract.

Peter Huber and Mark Mills' 2005 book ''The Bottomless Well: The Twilight of Fuel, the Virtue of Waste, and Why We Will Never Run Out of Energy'' documents why energy is not scarce, new energy sources and transmission and storage are always being developed, and rapidly improving energy effeciency correlates with both increased usage and new sources leading to ever-cheaper, less polluting energy and more prosperity; in sum, no "energy crisis" is on the horizon for the foreseeable future and we may even see an energy glut, making any concerns over diminishing oil supplies a non-issue.
