It is really easy to read, but surprizingly exact. You my or may not like the style, but it is the first book I've seen which takes you by the hand and walks you through the cloud classification system, so that even I finally think it's pretty obvious. The pictures are black and white only, too, but it really doesn't matter in this book. However all the pictures in the book are also in the gallery on the Cloud Appreciation Society website. Buy the book for the words, look at the pictures on-line. Stephen Thanks all for the suggestions - I've got a great deal of material now. For others who may be interested, I also found on the NSW Bureau of Meteorology site (why didn't i go there first?) a good primer: http://www.bom.gov.au/info/clouds/ which is also available as a pdf. cheers smith |
