Reviews

<br> Tuck's book concentrates on the subtle relationships between molecular dynamics, vorticity, turbulence, radiative transfer and chemical processes in the atmosphere in the presence of external factors (gravity, rotation and solar beam). Also, a unique collection containing 12 instructive, mostly scientific, quotations is included. The book is supplemented with up-to-date references, a very useful glossary and a comprehensive index...can be recommended to advanced students and researchers with a deep interest in atmospheric sciences. --Pure Applied Geophysics<br>
