Excursion en Italie (1880) / Th. AbrahamDate de l'édition originale: 1880Sujet de l'ouvrage: Italie -- Descriptions et voyages -- 19e siècleLe présent ouvrage s'inscrit dans une politique de conservation patrimoniale des ouvrages de la littérature Française mise en place avec la BNF.HACHETTE LIVRE et la BNF proposent ainsi un catalogue de titres indisponibles, la BNF ayant numérisé ces oeuvres et HACHETTE LIVRE les imprimant à la demande.Certains de ces ouvrages reflètent des courants de pensée caractéristiques de leur époque, mais qui seraient aujourd'hui jugés condamnables.Ils n'en appartiennent pas moins à l'histoire des idées en France et sont susceptibles de présenter un intérêt scientifique ou historique.Le sens de notre démarche éditoriale consiste ainsi à permettre l'accès à ces oeuvres sans pour autant que nous en cautionnions en aucune façon le contenu.Pour plus d'informations, rendez-vous sur www.hachettebnf.fr

Excerpt from The Reign of Grace, From Its Rise to Its Consummation Truly divine, has ever been the object of the world's contempt. It was of old a flumblingblock to the felfrighteous Jew, and fooliflmefs to the phi lofophic Greek. Paul, who was a refolute afiertor of the honours of grace, and indefatigable in preach ing Chrifl, found it fo by repeated experience and that, not only among the illiterate and profane, but alfo among the learned and the devout. Nay, he had frequent occafion to obferve, that the religious devotees of his age were the firfi in oppoling th doctrine he preached, and the mofi hardened ene mies againft the truth of God. The polite, the learned, the religious, were all agreed, to load both his character and his doctrine with the foulefl te proaches. Nor was this treatment peculiar to Paul, but common to all his cotemporaries, who efpoufed the fame glorious caufe, and laboured in the fame beneficent work. The doctrine they preached was charged with licentioufnefs. Their enemies boldly affirmed that-they (aid; Let u: do evil that good may.

In today's world, clean and robust energy sources are beingsought to provide power to residences, commercial operations,and manufacturing enterprises. Among the most appealingenergy sources is wind power-with its high reliability andlow environmental impact. Wind power's rapid penetrationinto markets throughout the world has taken many forms, andthis book discusses the types of wind power, as well as theappropriate decisions that need to be made regarding windpower design, testing, installation, and analysis.Inside, the authors detail the design of various small-windsystems including horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs) andvertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs). The design of wind turbinestakes advantage of many avenues of investigation, all of whichare included in the book. Analytical methods that have beendeveloped over the past few decades are major methods usedfor design. Alternatively, experimentation (typically using scaledmodels in wind tunnels) and numerical simulation (using moderncomputational fluid dynamic software) are also used and will bedealt with in depth.In addition to the analysis of wind turbine performance, it isimportant for users to assess the economic benefits of using windpower. An entire chapter of this book is devoted to this topic,as well as case studies that help elucidate the issues that you'llneed to consider, from siting and mechanical complications, toperformance and maintenance.
