A Question of Power: Electricity and the Wealth of Nations by Robert Bryce is a nonfiction work of energy analysis, economic history, and public policy. Bryce, a longtime energy journalist, examines electricity not as a routine utility but as the central operating system of modern civilization. The book argues that reliable, affordable power is closely tied to wealth, health, education, industrial capacity, and political stability. Its purpose is to make readers see electrification as a material condition behind modern life rather than a background convenience. Bryce combines reporting from multiple locations with broad discussion of grids, fuels, energy density, capital investment, and technology choices. A major focus is the global divide between societies with abundant electricity and those still living with limited or unreliable access. The book also challenges claims that renewable energy alone can satisfy rising demand, while making a case for the continuing importance of dispatchable generation, including nuclear power.
