Book Synopsis The Oil and the Glory by : Steve LeVine
Download or read book The Oil and the Glory written by Steve LeVine and published by Random House. This book was released on 2007-10-23 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remote, forbidding, and volatile, the Caspian Sea long tantalized the world with its vast oil reserves. But outsiders, blocked by the closed Soviet system, couldn’t get to it. Then the Soviet Union collapsed, and a wholesale rush into the region erupted. Along with oilmen, representatives of the world’s leading nations flocked to the Caspian for a share of the thirty billion barrels of proven oil reserves at stake, and a tense geopolitical struggle began. The main players were Moscow and Washington–the former seeking to retain control of its satellite states, and the latter intent on dislodging Russia to the benefit of the West. The Oil and the Glory is the gripping account of this latest phase in the epochal struggle for control of the earth’s “black gold.” Steve LeVine, who was based in the region for The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and Newsweek, weaves an astonishing tale of high-stakes political gamesmanship, greed, and scandal, set in one of the most opaque corners of the world. In LeVine’s telling, the world’s energy giants jockey for position in the rich Kazakh and Azeri oilfields, while superpowers seek to gain a strategic foothold in the region and to keep each other in check. At the heart of the story is the contest to build and operate energy pipelines out of the landlocked region, the key to controlling the Caspian and its oil. The oil pipeline that resulted, the longest in the world, is among Washington’s greatest foreign policy triumphs in at least a decade and a half. Along the way, LeVine introduces such players as James Giffen, an American moneyman who was also the political “fixer” for oil companies eager to do business on the Caspian and the broker for Kazakhstan’s president and ministers; John Deuss, the flamboyant Dutch oil trader who won big but lost even bigger; Heydar Aliyev, the oft-misunderstood Azeri president who transcended his past as a Soviet Politburo member and masterminded a scheme to loosen Russian control over its former colonies in the Caspian region; and all manner of rogues, adventurers, and others drawn by the irresistible pull of untold riches and the possible “final frontier” of the fossil-fuel era. The broader story is of the geopolitical questions of the Caspian oil bonanza, such as whether Russia can be a trusted ally and trading partner with the West, and what Washington’s entry into this important but chaotic region will mean for its long-term stability. In an intense and suspenseful narrative, The Oil and the Glory is the definitive chronicle of events that are understood by few, but whose political and economic impact will be both profound and lasting.

Book Synopsis The Christian Faith by : Carl E. Braaten
Download or read book The Christian Faith written by Carl E. Braaten and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-05-29 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This single volume of dogmatics is an introduction to the Christian faith as such, written from an intentionally ecumenical perspective. Although this book is written by a Lutheran, its aim is to draw from the deep wells of the Christian tradition, its creeds and confessions, common to all denominations. Denominational dogmatics tends to define and defend the teachings of the Christian faith from the perspective of a particular church, in distinction from others. Ecumenical dogmatics is a relatively new attempt to focus on the beliefs and teachings fundamental to all communities that call themselves Christian. Such a project aims to be more irenic than polemical, intent on seeking and serving reconciliation and unity in Christ. The trinitarian and christological confessions of the first five centuries are foundational for all Eastern Orthodox, Roman Catholic, and Protestant Reformation churches and, despite all their subsequent differences and divisions, are quintessential in their journey toward reconciliation and reunion. These ancient creeds also suggest the appropriate outline for the organization of the contents of dogmatics even today, following the works of the triune God--creation, redemption, and sanctification.

Book Synopsis Morning Devotions for Maeve by : Deborah Dolan
Download or read book Morning Devotions for Maeve written by Deborah Dolan and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-01-25 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing Morning Devotions for Maeve was peace and strength for me. In July of 2021, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Due to COVID-19, I was predominantly homebound for nearly a year. Contracting COVID-19 would have postponed treatments, surgeries, and therapies; so I had to miss family gatherings, even Thanksgiving and Christmas. But mostly, I missed my six grandchildren who all live in the same area as I do. At some point, I started texting my oldest granddaughter, Maeve. I am an early riser, and every morning possible, I sent her a devotion. And that's how this book came to be. I wanted to leave a spiritual legacy by sharing the Bible stories that had always moved my heart. Each morning I had a sense of purpose that filled my soul and let me touch and be with my granddaughter. These devotions have comforted me, strengthened me, and literally carried me through a storm. It would be sweet and precious to me if they somehow helped somebody else too.
