Meteorology for Today 9th Edition September 20, 2008
Mr. Graeme P. Tepper (Australia)

The title is very apt. For anyone interested in descriptive concepts (no maths)of general meteorology and environment systems - how they work, this book covers just about every topic of interest to us today. Content is clearly laid out and easy to understand. The graphics are first class. This is a great book for basic understanding of the workings of our atmosphere. I congratulate the author. As a companion and for further indepth knowledge (with simle maths) I suggest Meteorology for Scientists and Engineers.

Good introduction to Meteorology December 20, 2009
Shelley Jeltema
I liked this book as it was laid out well. The author does not use jargon and writing style is clear and easy to understand. With that said, it did not spoon feed the reader mush. I did not look at the online segments, but it was nice to see that they were there if I needed it.
I would recommend this book if you are interested in learning about our weather and global climate.

This book is a very good textbook. It is easy to read even for a beginner. It has a lot of nice, large pictures in it. It explains meterology well.
