If You Find Weather Fascinating
If you have enjoyed reading about the weather on this blog or elsewhere, may I modestly recommend my book, Warnings: The True Story of How Science Tamed the Weather?
It is an upbeat story about the people who defied the odds and created the storm warning system that saves so many lives.
As one professional reviewer put it,
While weather forecasters often appear starchy and bland, Smith makes the weather into an urgent concern, and a remarkable victory. This story turns the weather into a quest, and meteorologists into the most unlikely heroes in recent literature.
It can hardly get more urgent than warning of tornadoes, something we have had to do too many times the last few days.
Because of its uplifting and inspiring story, it would be a great gift for grad or Dad.
