| Summary: | "This book presents a comprehensive treatment of wind energy history, principles, and techniques as well as environmental, health, aesthetic, social, and political impacts. Aiming to contribute to the sustainability discussion, the book will bridge the gap between advanced engineering and popular books, with wide appeal to technical experts and the general interest reader. Focusing primarily on the European and North American markets with reviews also of India and China, readers will gain a practical overview and understanding of modern wind energy. Fully illustrated with exceptional images, the authors intend to disprove many myths about wind energy by promoting the radical-middle approach for integrated and evolving energy resources in which wind power has come to play a prominent role and suggest that wind power in global energy development should be given prominent treatment, particularly for renewable, non-polluting energy sources"-- Provided by publisher. |
