Understanding Weather and Climate (Masteringmeteorology)

This is about the best book you can find on introductory weather and climate processes. Also, if you're a specialist in one tiny area (but know little about other parts of weather/climate) this can help organize your thinking on the subject.

I am happy that I didn't have to pay a fortune for this book. Having this be my first time ever renting a text from Amazon, I am unaware how things are done. This book does get the job done but is far, far, far from perfect when it comes to its condition

I have always had an interest in weather and climate so the idea to take a class at the local junior college fit perfectly. Since I graduated from that junior college in 1968, a lot of big changes have happened in the area of this science. The book gives a great background in weather with the accompanying videos, and I enjoy the class very much. I know I won't be a weather expert, but I do feel that I will have a much better understanding of the topic.

The book looks like it has been rolled up in a sleeve for years. Many pages fall out constantly as I try to read or flip through the pages. It's usable for studying but I worry that I will be accused of putting the book in such a dilapitated state when I return it.

I felt that the chapters were a little disorganized but that could have been in part to how disorganized my class was

The only reason why I gave this a 3 star is because I bought it for a class at my college and ended up not using it at all

Book was helpful and great. I forgot to return the book and I was charged $160 and I was not aware of the return date so when I return the book; can I get my $160 back ?

I expected the rental to be worn with maybe some things underlined, but the book literally has pages coming undone from the binding.

Excellent quality product. Great content, very precise topics

good
