Your American Birthright: Investing in Oil and Gas

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Thompson, Stephen M., PUBLISHER: Leland Energy Inc, "Your American Birthright" is a practical, how-to guide for the successful investor who wants to learn the necessary background for investing in domestic oil and natural gas production. Unlike most countries around the world, America offers its investors the opportunity to gain wealth through direct participation in domestic oil and gas production. "Your American Birthright" cogently describes the current world's energy markets as becoming more competitive. While there is still a substantial supply of oil and gas, locating it and bringing it to market is a difficult and arduous process. These limitations, coupled with the current surge in the growing global demand for energy consumption, will keep the energy markets increasingly profitable for those investors who are able to take advantage of these financial opportunities. "Your American Birthright" clearly explains all aspects involved in domestic oil and gas production and in energy investments. He also discusses how direct participation in energy production investments favorably compares to other investment alternatives, such as stocks, bonds and real estate. "Your American Birthright" contains a chapter of frequently asked questions that require objective answers all investors need to know. For the novice, Mr. Thompson provides a convenient glossary of energy related terminology.

Switzerland: A Guide to Recent Architecture

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hildebrandt, Thomas / Huber, Maja / Huber, Maya, PUBLISHER: Ellipsis Arts, The selection of projects in this guide aims to provide an insight into around 100 projects with access for visitors.

Those not entirely satisfied by the architecture will have the consolation of the stunning landscapes. The past two decades have seen an extraordinary number of innovative buildings realised by a generation of young Swiss architects. Reacting against the light-hearted and colourful imagery of post-modernism, the fragmentation of deconstructivism, and the accelerating fashion in styles of building, architects are looking towards a more generic architecture, an architecture searching for articulation devoid of predetermined formal meanings -- an architecture without style.
