風力発電の理論を紹介した専門書です。

In any discipline where there many individuals working at the frontier, there is a need for information that is above the introductory level yet still accessible and useful to those without advanced degrees. Wind experimenters have had to struggle along; even Jack Park’s previous and admirable books covered only a small segment of the subject. Now Jack has come through with the most complete and usable book available on the subject wind power. It’s aimed, rather accurately, at the experimenter and build-it-yourselfer. Theory is covered in a simplified way that will enable an intelligent person to design a machine or other aspect of a wind system, but this book does not take the place of a mechanical engineer’s education. You’ll still need an engineer for the final calculations; and Jack tells you which numbers are critical. The only nit I’d pick is that it would be nice to have more detail; specific brand names and suppliers indicated where appropriate. The publisher tells me that as response to this book comes in, a revised edition will incorporate the field knowledge. That’ll be frosting on the cake. As it is, The Wind Power Book stands without competition and probably will have none for some time.
