The book espoused on the historical perspective; and the extant laws regulating the industry; it identified lapses hindering the much needed progress and advocated compliance with the legal norms. Its commentary on the innovative concept of internationalization of environmental litigation coupled with analysis of live cases and guidance is outstanding. The book further exposed the non-challant attitude of the industry operators in curtailing oil spillage and proffering remediation steps; it tried to explain out the technicalities deployed by lawyers to defeat the claims of host communities based on applicability of the rule in Rylands v Fletcher and the otiose called third party interference on the pipelines. It also highlighted unconstitutionality of levying fines by regulatory agencies without recourse to Court.

The book has, therefore, come as a welcome intervention in sensitizing for legal and regulatory overhaul of the legal regime to enable Nigeria maximizes the benefits of an oil rich nation.
