The new air world
Willis Luther Moore
The air is a layered ocean, and Willis Moore charts its depths. He compares the atmospheres of Earth, sun, and planets, explores the exploration of the sky, and explains its four great layers of light and heat. Clear, sweeping, and grounded in meteorology. A vivid survey of the new science of the atmosphere. Rise through the layers of air that shield and shape our world.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
