This textbook is a comprehensive and up-to-date reference concerning the application of these disciplines to cementing a well.``Well Cementing'' is envisioned as an upper-level university book, as well as a reference for practicing engineers and scientists. The first section of the book illustrates how the quality of the hydraulic seal provided by the cement sheath can affect well performance. The second section concentrates on the desig...
There have been seismic shifts recently occurring in the realm of education. There is an important transition from a focus on "qualification" to "competence" in the world of work, and the need to equip educators with the skills and methodologies required to meet these changing demands has never been greater.

New England is a rocky, rugged region. Its towns are marked by stone walls and its cities anchored by native granite and marble buildings. Historically significant boulders, many with Native American as well as colonial and neo-pagan origins, attract tourists from around the world. Some are formations that are complex in shape, form and significance, while others contain enigmatic messages, meanings and intriguing characteristics. Learn more about the famous sites like Plymouth Rock, the Old Man of the Mountain and the Sleeping Giant, as well as the lesser-known such as Profile Rock, Dighton Rock and Slate Rock. Authors Michael J. Vieira and J. North Conway examine the history, the legends and the people associated with forty-five notable geological wonders.

« The Project Method », cet immensément célèbre article du pédagogue américain William H. Kilpatrick, paru en 1918 dans la revue universitaire américaine Teachers College Record, est pour la première fois traduit en français. Vendu à plus de 65 000 exemplaires, ce texte, tiré à part, connaît rapidement un grand succès. Avec celui-ci, la méthode des projets, jusque-là confinée à l’enseignement universitaire et à la formation professionnelle, fait son entrée dans les écoles primaires et secondaires. Depuis quelques années, plusieurs travaux ont été publiés sur les sources des idées de Kilpatrick et leur importante répudiation par celui-ci ; des recherches crédibl...
