Hardback. Zustand: 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 colonial 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.…

Paperback. Zustand: 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 infertility. 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.
