Energy efficient lighting is said to be one of the most cost-effective approaches to save energy and reduce C02 emissions. In order to stimulate the application of lighting retrofits of good quality, IEA Task 50, Subtask B “Daylighting and Electric Lighting solutions” has looked into the assessment of existing and new technical retrofit solutions in the field of façade and daylighting technology, electric lighting and lighting controls. The document provides information for those involved in the development of retrofit products or involved in the decision making process of a retrofit project, such as buildings owners, authorities, designers and consultants, as well as the lighting and f...

Depuis la première édition de cet ouvrage, la muséologie s'est imposée comme discipline académique et comme formation professionnelle à part entière. L’ambition de cette nouvelle édition est à la fois de rendre compte des développements récents des techniques muséographiques, et de couvrir le large éventail des points de vue portés sur le musée, en accueillant le regard d'experts à travers des "Cartes blanches" (François Mairesse, Dominique Poulot, Yves Bergeron, Didier Rykner, Nathalie Dist, Xavier Rolland, Jean Nouvel...).

Typically one third of the energy used in many buildings may be consumed by electric lighting. Good daylighting design can reduce electricity consumption for lighting and improve standards of visual comfort, health and amenity for the occupants.As the only comprehensive text on the subject written in the last decade, the book will be welcomed by all architects and building services engineers interested in good daylighting design. The book is based on the work of 25 experts from all parts of Europe who have collected, evaluated and developed the material under the auspices of the European Commission's Solar Energy and Energy Conservation R&D Programmes.
An illustrated textbook which describes the developmental pathology of the embryonic, foetal and perinatal periods. The first half of the book discusses such topics as normal development, concepts of embryo-foetal disease and dysmorphology, metabolic, infectious, neoplastic and placental disorders, and the pathology of abortions and multiple gestation.
