About this title

Synopsis

The Weather Book presents for the first time in clear, non-technical language, a complete illustrated guide to both individual meteorological phenomena and the types of climate that occur throughout the world. It explains how weather comes about and gives an account of the atmosphere and the agents which act upon it to produce the variations of temperature and pressure that take place around the globe. Each meteorological phenomenon is described, explained and given a historical background. The climatic zones of the world are analysed and new theories of climatic change examined in detail. There are also fascinating accounts of the folklore, myths and beliefs of our ancestors, together with an explanation of the methods of modern forecasting.

Store Description

The Clock Bookshop is a valuable resource for book lovers in the heart of the Fens with funds raised from book sales being donated to 'The Octavia Hill Birthplace House Trust' charity in Wisbech. Octavia Hill was the driving force and treasurer of the influential Kyrle Society sharing the view 'books for all'. It therefore feels appropriate that we extend our 'books for all' maxim by not only selling a range of quality books in our Wisbech bookshop but also rare, out of print and antiquarian books online.
