“ An unknown and hitherto untold story of one of the true pioneers of the international oil industry.” William McGarvey was crowned the “ Petroleum King of Austria,” dubbed “ Europe' s Rockefeller,” advised the British government in the great debate over converting its naval fleet to oil fuel in preparation for World War I. His story is one that links Canada, the US, Austro-Hungary, Russia, and Romania.Today, we are witnessing a global campaign to bring to an end King Oil' s 150-year reign by shrinking the world' s reliance on fossil fuels.

Every day, we go home from work, we have a sit down and we decide what to have for dinner. If you're looking to go healthy, you'll consider cutting down your portion sizes or limiting certain, less healthy ingredients. If you're not, you might opt for a nice, greasy takeaway. Whether you choose the healthy option or not, you might be upset to learn that no matter what, you may be significantly increasing your chances of developing dementia - all down to cooking oil. Dr Yamashima explains in Cooking Oil Makes Genius or Alzheimer! just how dangerous common cooking oils can be in an effort to decrease the rise in Alzheimer's disease. His ground-breaking research will make you think twice about how you cook your meals - and just might help you to keep your brain and mind as sharp and sound as possible.
