Abstract
FOURTEEN years ago, the Cambridge University Press published a book by Mr. Cave on “The Structure of the Atmosphere in Clear Weather,” a well-known work on upper winds written by a meteorologist for meteorologists. “Clouds and Weather Phenomena,” which is also published by the Cambridge Press, is of a very different type, and while a work on clouds by Mr. Cave will undoubtedly be read by most meteorologists, the book is not intended for those engaged in the study of the weather but for the general public, and more particularly for artists, whose knowledge of cloud forms is often shown by their works to be very slight. In accordance with this object, the book is written in the simplest manner and contains scarcely any reference to meteorological theory.
