Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original wrappers. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters). 83 p. Chipped on extremities of pages and cover, minor stains on edges. Otherwise a good copy. First and only edition of this first work in book form on Baku and Azerbaijani oil. After the occupation of the Republic of Azerbaijan by the Red Army, many Azerbaijani intellectuals such as Mehmed Emin Resûlzâde (1884-1955) sought refuge in Turkey, established a publishing house called "Milli Azerbaycan Nesriyâti" [i.e. National Azerbaijan Publication] in 1928, Istanbul, and to make the voice of Azerbaijanis heard in exile to influence world public opinion. This book was published as the 9th publication of this publishing house. It was printed in Orhaniye Printing house in 1928 and was actually composed of the articles written by the author in the "Azeri-Turk" magazine. The first article appeared in the issue dated 15 August 1928, with other articles following it. The book, in which Mehmed Emin Rasülzade also penned a presentation, consists of the chapters: The Role of Oil in the World War, Azerbaijan at the Genoa Conference, Azerbaijan at the Hague Conference, the American Rivalry in Britain, A Common Front against the Bolsheviks, the Pursuits of the Oil Competition. Compiled from Mehdiyev's articles, is not only a propaganda work against the Russian occupation but also the first in-depth work written on Baku and Azerbaijan oil. Many sources in the text are referenced in footnotes. Mehdiyev says that world politics is shaped by the economy and oil is the most important factor in this context. In addition to expressing how important it is for the First World War, he also makes predictions about how oil will shape world politics in the future. According to Mehdiyev, whoever dominates the world's oil reserves will be the strongest state in the world. Based on M. Fanning, Mehdiyev states that Azerbaijani and Baku oil has an estimated 8 million barrels of resource rather than Mexican, American, Turkish, and Iranian oil.

Very Good French Original wrappers. Folio. (32 x 21 cm). bilingual in English and French. [8], 26, [2] p. First printed edition of these minutes by the Foreign Ministry of France in 1897-1898 on Bahr Al-Ghazal, Lake Chad, and the Upper Nile regions. The tensions between French and British relations were high in the 1875-1898 era. especially over Egyptian and African issues. At several points, these issues brought the two nations to the brink of war; but the situation was always defused diplomatically. For two decades, there was peace-but it was "an armed peace, characterized by alarms, distrust, rancor, and irritation." During the Scramble for Africa in the 1880s, the British and French generally recognized each other's spheres of influence. In an agreement in 1890, Great Britain was recognized in Bahr-el-Ghazal and Darfur, while Wadai, Bagirmi, Kanem, and the territory to the north and east of Lake Chad were assigned to France. The Suez Canal, initially built by the French, became a joint British-French project in 1875, as both saw it as vital to maintaining their influence and empires in Asia. In 1882, ongoing civil disturbances in Egypt (see Urabi Revolt) prompted Britain to intervene, extending a hand to France. France's expansionist Prime Minister Jules Ferry was out of office, and the government was unwilling to send more than an intimidating fleet to the region. Britain established a protectorate, as France had a year earlier in Tunisia, and popular opinion in France later put this action down to duplicity. It was at this time that the two nations established co-ownership of Vanuatu. The Anglo-French Convention of 1882 was also signed to resolve territory disagreements in western Africa. One brief but dangerous dispute occurred during the Fashoda Incident in 1898 when French troops tried to claim an area in the Southern Sudan, and a British force purporting to be acting in the interests of the Khedive of Egypt arrived. Under heavy pressure, the French withdrew and Britain took control over the area, As France recognized British control of Sudan. France received control of the small kingdom of Wadai, Which consolidated its holdings in northwest Africa. France had failed in its main goals. Fashoda was a diplomatic victory for the British because the French realized that in the long run, they needed friendship with Britain in case of a war between France and Germany. (Wikipedia).

Tra i servizi a rete liberalizzati il settore del gas naturale presenta dei gradi di complessità strutturale che rendono lenta e problematica la realizzazione di un mercato competitivo, richiedendo ancora consistenti interventi di regolazione. Questo libro apre una riflessione sui modelli adottati nella regolamentazione delle infrastrutture del "sistema gas" offrendo al lettore degli spunti critici per un miglioramento della loro efficacia sotto il profilo economico e giuridico. Una buona regolazione costituisce l'elemento propedeutico fondamentale per realizzare una piattaforma commerciale efficiente del gas naturale. L'obiettivo è quello di delineare un quadro prospettico della regolazione per identificare un percorso di completamento del market design necessario alla realizzazione di un hub italiano del gas naturale. Autori: Massimo Beccarello, Francesco Piron.

brossura Il Manuale si propone sia come strumento per la preparazione agli esami di chi intende conseguire la patente di abilitazione all'impiego dei gas tossici ai sensi del R.D 9 gennaio 1927, n. 147, sia di fornire utili indicazioni per una corretta applicazione di tale Regolamento e degli altri provvedimenti con cui esso si interfaccia in un sistema normativo integrato. A questo proposito, sono state prese in esame le diverse problematiche di sicurezza e igiene sul lavoro, associate all'impiego dei gas tossici, con specifici richiami alla tossicologia industriale e al monitoraggio ambientale e biologico, alla prevenzione incendi e al primo soccorso, alla protezione delle vie respiratorie, all'immissione sul mercato, al trasporto , ecc. Completano il piano dell'opera la trattazione, in forma di "safety data - sheet", delle sostanze che ricadono nel regime di "gas tossici" e alcuni riferimenti bibliografici, riportati in calce ad ogni capitolo, ai quali si rimanda per l'approfondimento dei temi svolti. Renato Mari Ha maturato la propria esperienza professionale dapprima in Montedi- son e società del Gruppo nell'area HSE (Salute, Sicurezza e Ambiente) e poi in Federchimica, dove ha ricoperto il ruolo di Responsabile dell'Area Logistica. Attualmente è Consulente presso il Centro Reach S.r.l. per iniziative di formazione e gestione di competenze afferenti alle problematiche del trasporto merci pericolose nelle diverse modalità.
