"In The Hiddenness of the World," French poet Gerard Martin addresses humanity's longing for a rebirth of wonder in a world frighteningly commercial, technological, and environmentally destructive. Martin's almost mystical approach draws attention to minute details of the natural world as secret mirrors of the sacred. Bertrand Mathieu's translation gives Martin the vivaciousness he gave another French poet--Rimbaud

Gerard Martin has published poetry in France as well as numerous critical articles about Rimbaud and others.

Bertrand Mathieu is the translator of the preeminent translation of "Rimbaud, A Season in Hell & Illuminations "(BOA Editions).

A wind turbine is a rotating machine which converts the kinetic energy in wind into mechanical energy. World-wide interest in renewable energy systems such as wind turbines has increased dramatically, due to environmental concerns like climate change and other factors. Wind power is a major source of sustainable energy, and can be harvested using both horizontal and vertical axis wind turbines. This book addresses wind turbines and provides theoretical background and rationale for these developments. The required guidelines to make wind farms environmentally friendly are addressed, as well as the impact that wind turbines may have on benthic biomass and diversity. Ideas about future developments of wind turbines are also reviewed in this book.
