Geology of North Africa
A reference volume on the geology of North Africa, this volume deals with Egypt, Libya, Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco. In great detail the geology, tectonic elements, the geology of the Pan-African Shield, the Phanerozoic geological evolution and most of the lithostratigrahpic units of the five countries are described. Moreover, the petroleum geology and petroleum systems are discussed, as well as the history of geological exploration. With the incentive to provide a reference to the geology of North Africa that can be used both by professionals and students, this review work provides a large amount of data, based on more than 2500 references. Written in a clear, straight-forward and structur...
Israel’s Mediterranean Gas
This book examines the internal and external implications of Israel’s natural gas discoveries in the Eastern Mediterranean. The nation’s changed status from being an importer of coal and oil to that of an exporter of natural gas has consequences not only for the energy sector but also for the fragile geopolitics of the region. The book: Explores the challenges and issues of energy economics and governance; Analyses Israel’s gas diplomacy with its neighbours in the Middle East and North Africa and its potential positive impact on the amelioration of the Arab-Israeli conflict; Studies how Israel can avoid the deleterious impact of the Dutch disease once the government’s share of the export revenues start flowing. The author traces a consummate picture of history, politics, and conflicts that shape the economics of energy in Israel and its future trajectories. A major intervention in Middle East studies, this volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of energy studies, development studies, strategic studies, politics, diplomacy, and international relations. It will also be of interest to government agencies, think-tanks, and risk management firms.

Geology of Egypt and Libya
Treating the geology of Egypt and Libya as one entity, this unquestionably thorough text is divided into six parts covering the following key areas: · the tectonic framework of Egypt and Libya and the main tectonic elements in the two countries · the geology of the Pan-African Shield · the Phanerozoic stratigraphy of Egypt, with a review of the stratigraphic nomenclature · a review of the stratigraphy of Libya · a synthesis of the geological evolution of Egypt and Libya, and how this fits into global tectonics and sea-level fluctuations. · a bibliographic list of more than 2000 references used in the compilation of the book.
Discrepant Abstraction
How the formal ingenuity of abstract art has been cross-fertilized by creative discrepancies—a cross-cultural voyage stretching from Hong Kong and Islamic regions to Canada, Australia, Europe, and the United States. For anyone who thinks the question of abstract art is settled, this book will come as a surprise. Discrepant abstraction is hybrid and partial, elusive and repetitive, obstinate and strange. It includes almost everything that does not neatly fit into the institutional narrative of abstract art as a monolithic quest for artistic purity. Exploring cross-cultural scenarios in twentieth-century art, this second volume in the Annotating Art's Histories series alters our understandin...
The Ghosts of Songs
