Das is the author of three books, on oil, and immigration in Canada [https://www.amazon.ca/Dispatches-Borderless-World-Satya-Das/dp/product-description/1896300421/ref=dp_proddesc_0?ie=UTF8&n=916520&s=books Dispatches from a Borderless World(1999)], The Best Country (2002) and Green Oil(2009). Dispatches, based on testimonies and personal experience growing up in a borderless world, portrays societies and culture in transition. The writer imagines how borderless societies try to find identity in a new world through their stories. The Best Country is set in Canada, where "capital and skilled people are mobile, and political borders are no longer clear-cut markers of identity and sovereignty.”.[2] Here, Das views Canadian global leadership from a human—as opposed to a military or political—perspective. In Greenoil he contends that Alberta's oil sands can be profitable and responsibly developed. His take on this estimated $15-trillion oil sands resource is the paradox of green oil, paving a clean energy]] future for his adopted western Canadian province, in the 21st Century.
