| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The power of water is immense. In this book, you will find information about the Hoover Dam and other types of dams, along with the basics of hydropower and hydroelectricity, and how we try to contain and control water with technology. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. |
