Summary: An overlooked classic
Comment: The title of this book, its date of publication, and the fact that it is translated from German might lead you to believe that it might be dull, but nothing could be further from the truth. It is highly readable, rigorous, and packed with curious information about anything and everything to do with climate (wind, radiation, temperature, humidity) from the micro- to meso-scale. It is a mine of useful information for anyone with a curiosity about the natural world around them, as well as professionals in the disciplines of animal and plant ecology, ecological physiology, horticulture, and forestry. If you've ever wondered why seagulls fly close to the water, why cities are warmer, and why sounds travel further at night, you'll find the answers (and more) in this classic book.
Rating: 5
Summary: One of the best technical books on any subject
Comment: Based on data rather than opinion. It is refreshing to see the huge effort of a scientist rather than unsupported opinon of those with a political agenda.
