5.0 out of 5 starsExtraordinary, Superb!
By Luis Mansilla on April 26, 2007
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This is pure Climate Theory straight to the veins. I chose this book looking for something that clearly explain the theory behind atmosphere, ocean and the problem of global warming without going into the details and this is what I found in this book, plus a wonderful explanation for the non-specialist. There are formulae in this book, but in my case, I focused more in the concepts.
The book is masterfully arranged, with lots of tables, figures and references, covering topics such as Ozone layer, clouds and aerosols, energy transfer, astronomicals changes that affect climate, measuring systems, other planets climates and more. Excellent book Mr. Taylor.

5.0 out of 5 starsGood Intro to Climate Physcis
By Gene Mick on September 24, 2007
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
As a physicist with no experience in climatology, I'm finding this book a good source of information to help sort out the many conflicting views on climate change. Readers will find some background in mathematics helpful, but not essential, in understanding the material.

5.0 out of 5 starsexcellent balanced overview
By arpard fazakas on October 3, 2012
Format: Paperback
This is an excellent overview of the physics of Earth's climate, including solar radiation, astronomical influences, the physics of the atmosphere and ocean, remote sensing of climate variables, and climate modelling. There is also a chapter on climates of other planets. Portions of it are at the advanced undergraduate level, but someone without an extensive background in math or physics could find much of it understandable and rewarding. Those interested in learning more about the science behind global warming and climate change will find the relevant material presented in a very balanced manner with detailed descriptions of the limitations of our current understanding of climate and its prediction.
