'Crude World' looks at some of the most awful places in the world - the violent, repressive and polluted countries where oil is extracted. Peter Maass follows the journey of oil and shows how it sullies so much of what it touches, poisoning land and rivers, promoting political bloodshed and creating corruption on a mass scale.
