Historical Dictionary of the Gulf Arab States

Historical Dictionary of the Gulf Arab States

Malcolm C. Peck

Scarecrow Press
2007
sidottu
The second edition of the Historical Dictionary of the Gulf Arab States comes at a time when the world's attention is riveted on the Middle East. The small states covered in this volume—Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE)—possess about 20 percent of the world's total oil reserves. Beyond the strategic and economic importance conferred upon them by their vast oil reserves, the Gulf Arab states are worthy of attention for the inherent interest of their history and culture. No area of the world has yielded more revealing and exciting archaeological finds in the past few decades than these states. Investigations have brought to light extensive evidence of an important culture as old as Egypt of the Pharaohs or ancient Babylon, which was virtually unknown previously except through rare references in the records of other civilizations. This expanded second edition covers the history of the five countries through a chronology broken down by country, a list of acronyms and abbreviations, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and several hundred cross-referenced dictionary entries on important persons, places, and events of each country. Everything from the Abbasids to Zubarah is covered in this essential reference on this increasingly important region of the world.

Macroeconomics in Question

Macroeconomics in Question

Malcolm C. Sawyer

M.E. Sharpe
1982
sidottu
Originally published in 1982, this book has two central purposes. The first is to present a rather more critical view of the Keynesian and monetarist approaches to macro-economics than is usually found in major macro-economics text-books. The second is to present an alternative approach to macro-economics, derived in the main from the work of Michal Kalecki. It will become apparent below that the major difference between the conventional approaches to macro-economics and the Kaleckian one arises from a basic difference over the nature of a modern capitalist economy. The conventional approaches rest on a perfectly competitive view of the world whilst the Kalecki approach draws on an oligopolistic view. The book has been written to be accessible to undergraduate students of economics who have taken a basic second-year degree level course in macro-economics (as represented by text-books such as Branson, 1979; Gordon, 1981). Particularly in Chapters 2-4 a knowledge of conventional macro-economics is required. References are provided in the text and in footnotes for those wishing to pursue particular topics further. The book also contains much of interest for professional economists.

We don't need to poison the earth in order to grow better food, and what is harmful to the environment when improperly disposed of often can be turned back to the soil in a beneficial way through composting - if you know how. The Secret Life of Compost tells you how.Author Malcom Beck was a lifelong organic farmer, and the founder of Garden-Ville, one of the largest commercial composting operations in the country.Beck shares his insight into the processes of decay that can transform everything from lawn trimmings to sewer sludge into life-giving earth. Coupled with Beck's insight into nature and practical advice are remarks from Charles Walters, author and founder of Acres U.S.A.Copyright 1997, softcover, 170 pages. 44 per case.Praise for The Secret Life of Compost: "Malcolm Beck's intuitive knowledge and lifelong research on the subject of compost and composting gives us a holistic presentation of the process in The Secret Life of Compost." - John Dromgoole, organic gardening authority, radio host"In this nation where we take for granted our extractive, technologically luxurious lifestyle, Malcolm Beck's knowledge and wise words give each of us the understanding and direction to initiate the regeneration of the most precious life form known - soil. For our flower box, yard, farm or vast rangelands, we must be sculptors of the process. He clearly tells us how and why." - Patricia Q. Behrens, Ph.D., Dick Richardson, Ph.D., University of Texas, Austin"Malcolm Beck is driven by a desire to make his portion of the world a better place by recycling man's waste products as compost to the soil to maintain and improve our nation's greatest natural resource - the soil.

Since the first edition of this book, 17 years ago, aquaculture has consolidated its position as an important means of producing food and as a contributor to global food security. Cage aquaculture too has continued to expand apace. The third edition of this important, useful and well-received book maintains the original aim of providing a thorough synthesis of information on cages and cage aquaculture practices with data and examples encompassing all major world regions. Fully updated, the book’s comprehensive contents include details of the origin and principles of cage aquaculture and an overview of its current position. Contents of the chapters following include key information on cage design and construction, site selection, environmental impacts and environmental capacity, management, and potential problems in cage aquaculture systems. A comprehensive reference list and index are included to help readers. The volume is essential reading for all personnel involved in fish and shellfish farms that use cages, and for all those embarking on a career in aquaculture. Cage manufacturers and others supplying the aquaculture trade will find much of commercial use within the book. All those involved in aquaculture research and equipment design should have a copy of this most useful book. All libraries in universities and research establishments where aquaculture, environmental science, aquatic science, fish biology and fisheries are studied and taught should have several copies on their shelves.

More Reflections Painted in Verse

More Reflections Painted in Verse

Malcolm C Kirwan

iUniverse
2020
pokkari
Many of us face feelings of powerlessness, unable to determine our destiny because we are often victims of our negative thoughts. Though we may be trapped in prisons of self-doubt, blind to the power of the possibilities within us, each of us is a work of art in progress, empowered by our dreams and by our visions of what we can achieve. More Reflections Painted in Verse seeks to offer proof that human beings, regardless of their callings in life, respond to the compelling power of the creative voice within them. It reveals poet Malcolm C. Kirwan's personal perspective on various themes: the fantasies, passions, joys, pain, and intrigue evoked by things romantic; the bonds of love that keep us united as families; the continuing search by persons of color for self-discovery; the power of the mind to define who we are; and the inspiration one can get from looking beyond one's limitations to one's possibilities. These verses reflect Kirwan's life experiences and his urge to contemplate and explore life's mysteries, portraying a search for self-discovery through the lens of poetry. Inspiring and uplifting, this collection of poetry examines our place on earth, the greater meaning of life and death, and all that happens in between to shape our destiny.
