Timely and comprehensive overview of microgrid technology and components with focus on control architectures and solutions to operate and manage the microgrid

This book covers the description of the technologies that integrate microgrids, including prime movers, energy storage elements, and power electronics. Issues related to the control of the individual elements, as well as the management of the overall system, are described, as well as the control parameters design and the system stability analysis. Finally it describes some real application and worldwide projects, which can be of interest among engineers. The book is divided into three sections – 'Basics', 'Technologies' and 'Hierarchical Control'.

• Surveys a wealth of recent research from Europe, USA and Japan currently diffused across the journal literature
• Describes power electronic interfaces and their control techniques for the different microgeneration devices under consideration and the microgrid control and management architectures – unique material helpful for engineers needing a concise overview of microgrids
• Enables the reader to integrate technologies inside a microgrid, highlighting technologies that are also applicable to other areas in renewable energy, energy storage, power electronics, electrical engineering, and power systems
• Matlab/Simulink files are hosted on a companion website, along with all the examples shown in the book, allowing readers to try out the concepts illustrated

Empower your students to become part of the solution. With a clear and upbeat voice, author Anna Leon-Guerrero’s thought-provoking overview of social problems challenges readers to understand and recognize social problems in their communities and inspires them to become part of the solution. The Fifth Edition of Social Problems: Community, Policy, and Social Action goes beyond the typical presentation of contemporary social problems and their consequences by emphasizing the importance and effectiveness of community involvement to achieve real solutions. With an overarching focus on social inequalities and policy, this proven text provides a platform for discussion that encourages critical thinking and inspires hope.

“The extra emphasis on social action and movements is a real strength…I like that the three major perspectives are used in each chapter as I feel many texts just put that in the first chapter and then forget about it.”
—Todd Michael Callais, University of Cincinnati-Blue Ash

No photographer during renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright’s lifetime was granted as much personal and professional access as his official photographer, Pedro E. Guerrero, who spent 20 years shooting Wright’s work, his homes and many key moments in his life.

Picturing Wright: An Album from Frank Lloyd Wright’s Photographer provides an illuminating portrait of Wright from the day of Guerrero’s serendipitous hiring in 1939 until his last assignment just before the architect’s 1959 death, a particularly momentous time in Wright’s career. Guerrero captured Wright at Taliesin West in Arizona, at Taliesin in Wisconsin and later at “Taliesin East”—his personally remodeled suite at New York’s Plaza Hotel. Guerrero was there as the Arizona site evolved from a makeshift camp to an internationally renowned architectural community; for the Taliesin Fellowship’s treks east to Taliesin each spring; and for life among the apprentice architects who created buildings, grew their own food, picnicked on the hillsides and thrived under the master’s watchful but benevolent eye.

Guerrero photographed many of Wright’s later projects, among them his innovative Usonian houses and provocative public buildings. Throughout, he recorded Wright in candid poses that provide a unique, behind-the-scenes glimpse of the architectural genius.

Picturing Wright gathers 200 of these compelling images to capture Wright in a refreshing new light. The photographs come to life through the entertaining, often humorous stories Guerrero tells to accompany them, from what Wright thought of cows to how he rearranged clients’ interiors to suit his own vision. An afterword to this updated edition by Dixie Legler Guerrero, Guerrero’s wife, traces the photographer’s life after Picturing Wright was first published. The book, a newly edited and curated edition building on the initial 1993 release (out of print for more than 20 years), has a group of new color photographs and features a foreword by noted architecture critic Martin Filler.

In 1991, the American Institute of Architects named Frank Lloyd Wright (1867–1959) the greatest American architect of all time and 12 of his buildings appeared onArchitectural Record’s list of the 100 most important buildings of the previous century, including Fallingwater, the Robie House, the Johnson Administration Building, the Guggenheim, Taliesin and Taliesin West.

Ingenua? Per niente. Anticonformista? Di certo. Con la testa tra le nuvole? Qualche volta... Mina si considera una ragazza normale, a volta si sente sola, a volte ha voglia di gridare, a volte vorrebbe avere una racchetta magica e fuggire da un'altra parte e altre volte è felice con poco: un pomeriggio di risate con la sua migliore amica, un momento di solitudine, un messaggio di qualcuno speciale...

Taking a relational approach to the study of interpersonal communication, Close Encounters: Communication in Relationships, Fourth Edition, by Laura K. Guerrero, Peter A. Andersen, and Walid A. Afifi, helps students better understand their relationships with romantic partners, friends, and family members.

While maintaining the spotlight on communication, the authors also emphasize the interdisciplinary nature of the study of personal relationships by including research from such disciplines as social psychology and family studies.

Fabienne Guerrero ha condotto per anni una vita in balia del peccato e, fra l'altro, delle trappole della New Age, finchè nel 1996 è stata protagonista di una profonda e sincera conversione. Resasi conto di essere stata letteralmente salvata dall'inferno grazie all'amore di Gesù, da allora viaggia in tutto il mondo per portare la sua testimonianza sotto la guida di un direttore spirituale e con l'incoraggiamento della Chiesa. 'Fabienne testimonia la Divina misericordia di Gesù e l'amore infinito che Egli le ha manifestato per salvarla; testimonia con umiltà per incitare i suoi lettori alla conversione, in conformità con gli insegnamenti del Vangelo e del Catechismo della chiesa Cattolica. Lei evangelizza. Io ci tengo a sostenerla in questo apostolato in contraddizione con lo spirito del mondo. Ve ne renderete conto da voi stessi, leggendo il suo scritto'. (Abbé Georges Lauzin, padre spirituale di Fabienne Guerrero)
