Hardback. Condition: New. In 1918, New Zealand mining engineer Frank Holmes spoke of 'an immense Arabian oilfield running from Kuwait down the mainland coast.' No one believed him. When Holmes struck oil in 1932, Britain and America scrambled to rectify their catastrophic error of judgment. In the resulting industrial and coloni…al rivalry, the region's destiny was radically transformed, socially, politically and economically. Uniquely and in great detail, Keating documents the phenomenon of Arabian oil in light of these accompanying upheavals. The Arabian Peninsula's history is seen as a dynamic process arising from the interaction and machinations of local sheikhdoms and states, colonial powers, and oil companies.

Hardback. Aileen Keating, Prometheus Books. Keating's authoritative narrative is based on years of research in original archives across the world. She explodes many myths, including the widely held notion that oil companies and geological experts of the time really did know that there was oil in Arabia but kept the knowledge und…er wraps to keep competitors away. Against an exotic backdrop of international intrigue and folly in high places, Keating also underscores the fact that the Arab sheikdoms after World War I were virtual outposts of the Raj (British rule from India), which helps to explain much about the political manoeuvring that kept the Arab kingdoms from gaining independence and profiting from their own oil reserves for many decades. Complete with maps and photos, a 'who's who' of key persons, and copious notes, "Mirage" is both a work of in-depth scholarship and an engaging story of power and politics with striking relevance for our time. Hardback.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. First Edition. First edition. 8vo. Hard cover binding, 560 pp. In this history of the discovery, development, and exploitation of Middle Eastern oil, a former Arab Gulf reporter for Time and Fortune tells a largely unknown story rich in drama, conflict, and comic interludes,… revealing how even as late as the end of World War I experts insisted "there is no oil in Arabia." Indeed, the fabulously rich oilfields of Bahrain, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia remained untapped for years after they were discovered by a New Zealander named Frank Holmes, a figure still downplayed in the West, but who has been honored by Arabs in the Gulf since the 1920s as Abu al-Naft "the Father of Oil." Aileen Keating explodes many myths here, including the notion that oil companies and geological experts knew there was oil in Arabia but kept it quiet to keep competitors away. New in new dustjacket.

Paperback. Condition: New. This book features four peer-reviewed reviews on optimising reproductive efficiency in pigs.The first chapter highlights some of the main factors which are known to affect reproductive efficiency in pigs, including gilt development, litter size, control of the weaning to oestrus interval and season inf…ertility. Management strategies designed to help producers continue to make a profit are also discussed.The second chapter introduces the concept of artificial insemination and details its importance in mitigating future challenges encountered by the global pig industry. The chapter also considers a range of factors which can affect the reproductive efficiency of boars, including low sperm count and semen quality.The third chapter reviews the advances and trade-offs of genetic selection for improved reproductive performance in modern sows, such as an increase in piglet mortality rates. The chapter also includes informed discussions on breeding for improved conception rate, litter size and maternal behaviour.The final chapter summarises the basic physiology of porcine female reproduction, including ovarian structure and function, folliculogenesis and steroidogenesis. It also describes stages of the porcine oestrous cycle. Further, emerging exposures and alterations to ambient temperatures and how they affect porcine female reproductive function are included.
