Customer Reviews:
Comprehensive, Concise and Interesting April 4, 2008 Jorge De Rosa Ferreira (Rio de Janeiro, RJ Brazil) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Dr Mathew had the ability to present in his book a comprehensive view of Wind Energy and Wind Power Project feasibility. The book is well-written and once I started the first page I just could not stop reading it. The most interesting point of this book is that it not only presents the basic concepts but it also reinforces its message with objective exercises. The WERA software (included) is an interesting first-step approach to more detailed wind power softwares such as WAsP and WindPro. I do recommend Dr Mathew's book to anyone interested in the Wind Energy business.
