Abstract
PROF. BRUNT'S book covers the field that links meteorology with physics. The treatment is mathematical wherever tractable problems can be defined, and elsewhere more descriptive. As a whole, the book gives an impressive review of the growing success of mathematical methods within such an empirical science as meteorology. Much of this progress is of a rather recent date and a considerable portion of it is due to the efforts of British investigators, so that it is very much to be welcomed that one of these pioneers has now found the opportunity to present the whole field of physical and dynamical meteorology in text-book form.
