Editorial Review Product Description “[Strachey's] sharp eye, playful language and perfect comic timing will not only have you laughing, it'll leave you wondering why the rom-com formula isn't imaginatively tweaked more often.”—NPR's 'Books We Like' “A brilliant, bittersweet upstairs-downstairs comedy.”—Guardian “Anyone facing a deluge of summer nuptials will find breezy relief in Julia Strachey’s 1932 novella, Cheerful Weather for the Wedding.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer It is a brisk English March day, and Dolly is getting ready to marry the wrong man. Waylaid by the sulking admirer who lost his chance, an astonishingly oblivious mother bustling around and making a fuss, and her own sinking dread, the bride-to-be struggles to reach the altar. Dolly knew, as she looked round at the long wedding-veil stretching away forever, and at the women, too, so busy all around her, that something remarkable and upsetting in her life was steadily going forward. Julia Strachey (1901-1979) was born in India, where her father, a brother of Lynon Strachey, was in the Civil Service. After her parents' divorce she lived with relations in England and went to Bedales and the Slade and then worked as a model, as a photographer and in publishing. She first married the sculptor Stephen Tomlin and then the art critic Lawrence Gowing; her two novels appeared in 1932 and 1951. Customer Reviews (4)

Editorial Review Product Description With their images practically ubiquitious in the daily media, weather radar systems provide data not only for understanding weather systems and improving forecasts (especially critical for severe weather), but also for hydrological applications, flood warnings and climate research in which ground verification is needed for global precipitation measurements by satellites. This book offers an accessible overview of advanced methods, applications and modern research from the European perspective. An extensive introductory chapter summarizes the principles of weather radars and discusses the potential of modern radar systems, including Doppler and polarisation techniques, data processing, and error-correction methods. Addressing both specialist researchers and nonspecialists from related areas, this book will also be useful for graduate students planning to specialize in this field |

Editorial Review Product Description As a homeschooling mom (with a Ph.D. in microbiology), author Rebecca Rupp learned first-hand that kids respond best to scientific information when it is presented in a way that is fun, lively, and off-beat. To keep the attention of her three young sons, she combined impeccable science with strange-but-true examples and exciting experiments and projects designed to reinforce important concepts. A product of Rupp's many years as a student and a teacher, WEATHER is a breakthrough book for exciting kids about science. Rupp's approach is as much fun for grownups as it is for kids. Who doesn't want to know whether the flapping of a butterfly's wings can eventually set off a tornado? Or why snow that fell white turned pink on the ground? Or that the Hindenberg exploded after lightning ignited the flammable paint on the zeppelin's outer cover? Bursting with the kinds of ideas, facts, statistics, and explanations that kids find irresistible (and that are guaranteed to make them smarter than their parents!), WEATHER is the ultimate book for every budding meteorologist. Sample Experiments and Projects from Weather: Start a Tornado in a Bottle, Make Your Own Compass, Set Off Lightning on a Plate, Make Your Own Hygrometer (to measure humidity in the atmosphere), Become a Real Rainmaker, Whip Up a Batch of Atmosphere in a Pan and more.

Super Reader

This is NOT for the beginner
good - but I expected more.... Ensure you read Last Call and Expiration Date first - both are highly recommended. If you don't really enjoy them, you'll probably want to give this one a skip. ... Read more |
