Author Guillaume Pitron is a French journalist, documentary director and author, specializing in natural resources, technology and geopolitics , based on six years of research in more than a dozen countries.
In his book, Guillaume Pitron powerfully raises the existential questions of resource geopolitics in the 21st century. As rare metals become strategic resources, major powers such as the United States and Europe are trying to reduce their dependence on China by rebuilding their domestic mining and refining capabilities. This competition is not only changing international relations but also reshaping the global power map.
Since its publication, the book has quickly become a staple in discussions about resources, technology, and sustainable development. It has received positive reviews on platforms such as Goodreads (4.2/5) and Amazon (4.5/5).
The work also raises thorny questions: Is the green revolution really green? Are we replacing one form of pollution with another? And who will control the strategic resources of the future?
Not only is the book a sharp analysis, it is also a warning about a quiet but fierce race - where rare metals are no longer something deep underground, but a factor shaping the global balance of power.
