ISBN: 9781845112493 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The US sees itself as being locked into a confrontation with Iran, its number one enemy since the invasion of Saddam Hussein's Iraq.

With global energy demands at an all-time high and supplies becoming increasingly inaccessible, Iran's oil and gas have already started to...

However, the discovery that kerosene could be extracted from crude oil and used as fuel for light...
