Críticas
'... a book whose clarity and breadth of vision set it apart.' Scientific American
'... will be invaluable not just to anyone interested in weather cycles but to students involved in analysis of any varying phenomena - which means everyone from population biologists to astrophysicists.' John Gribbin, New Scientist
'... will serve the general reader interested in the weather and its changes as well as the working atmospheric scientist. Burroughs uses a minimum of mathematics, rendering the book accessible to the layperson.' Richard A. Anthes, Science
'The book is clear and logically presented ... an enjoyable and informative read ... deserves a wide readership.' David Pike, The Observatory
'I enjoyed reading it, I learnt a lot, and will refer back to it as further developments in the study of the earth's climate unfold.' Dave Wheeler, Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology
' ... neatly written and excellently presented piece of popular science.' The Times Higher Education Supplement
'If there ever were such a thing as a meteorological thriller, Burroughs came close to writing one....Every meteorologist and climatologist caught in the predictability dilemma should have this affordable book on his/her nightstand or, better yet, in the suitcase marked for summer vacation.' Elmar R. Reiter, Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics
' ... a scholarly, college-level compilation of the latest scientific facts, combined with history documenting the failure to locate reliable weather cycles. In so doing, Burroughs succeeds in separating unreliable statistics and technical information from more consistent studies reflecting weather patterns.' Bookwatch
'The information is presented with a minimum of mathematics and can be enjoyed by general readers.' A.E. Staver, Choice
' ... does give a good overview of the analysis of climatic data, the attempted reconstruction of past climates, and some of the theories of climatic change.' Edward A. Brotak, Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society
Biografía del autor
After seven years at the UK National Physical Laboratory researching atmospheric physics, Bill Burroughs spent three years as a UK Scientific Attaché in Washington D.C. Between 1974 and 1995, he held a series of senior posts in the UK Departments of Energy and then Health. He is now a professional science writer and has published several books on various aspects of weather and climate (two as a co-author), and also three books for children on lasers. These books include Watching the World's Weather (1991), Weather Cycles (1992), Does the Weather Really Matter? (1997), The Climate Revealed (1999), and Climate Change: A Multidisciplinary Approach (2001), all with Cambridge University Press. In addition, he acted as lead author for the World Meteorological Organisation on a book entitled Climate: Into the Twenty-First Century. He has also written widely on the weather and climate in newspapers and popular magazines.
