A history of romanian oil vol. I
The work represents a synthesis published and printed in two volumes (the 1st volume in 2002, the second one, in 2004) under the aegis of Mica Valahie Publishing House in Bucharest. Being elaborated on the basis of some documents discovered in the Romanian and foreign archives, the two volumes cover the period up to 1929 in the first volume and the period from 1929 to 2005 in the second one. The paper reveals the role and place of Romanian oil in the evolution of the national and worldwide history, especially during the World War between 1939 and 1945 and in the development of the so-called “cold war”. The book insists upon the prospects of the specific “black gold” evolution.In the addendum there are to be found some interesting documents and the complete bibliography of oil.

"No other official record or group of records is as historically significant as the 1790 census of the United States.

Britain, France and the Decolonization of Africa
Looking at decolonization in the conditional tense, this volume teases out the complex and uncertain ends of British and French empire in Africa during the period of ‘late colonial shift’ after 1945. Rather than view decolonization as an inevitable process, the contributors together explore the crucial historical moments in which change was negotiated, compromises were made, and debates were staged. Three core themes guide the analysis: development, contingency and entanglement. The chapters consider the ways in which decolonization was governed and moderated by concerns about development and profit. A complementary focus on contingency allows deeper consideration of how colonial powers ...
Toward an International Virtual Observatory
The book is the first thorough overview of the first important steps to develop a worldwide virtual observatory so that, in the future, it could be easier to "dial-up" a part of the sky than wait many months to access a telescope. The articles in this book present details on the status of the first efforts to develop a standardized framework for the virtual observatory, including steps towards completion and deployment of technical infrastructure, uptake by data providers worldwide, and utilization by the scientific community.
A Writer's Wane and Other Short Stories, Plus a Mini Mystery
Throughout history, the human condition has been depicted in many forms, including fireside tales, street performances, plays, dramas, poems, short stories and the novel, just to name the most obvious. Every conceivable aspect of human existence has been confronted in multiple episodes of truths, half-truths, as well as fictionalized from the Real. Nothing new, of course, could be written about the many foibles and predicaments of human nature. But, for every tale, there is a different slant, a different set of characters, and a different drama unfolding. In the stories between the covers of this book, are characters who live only in the imagination of the author. Based upon reality, of course, but placed in their own settings, the stories are made up from the fabric of the human raw materials we each carry with us from Life's experiences. For every decision, there is a consequence, a payoff. Some outcomes are desirable and some are undesirable. But, with each decision we make, in large measure, we are creating our own lives. So... BEWARE!!
