Revue de presse :
'This textbook provides a concise, accurate and elegant introduction to scientific study of the Earth's atmosphere.' World Meteorological Organization Bulletin
'... well-written and clearly organized ... covers a broad survey of topics.' George J. Hakim, EOS
'David Andrews has crafted a thoughtful introductory text on atmospheric physics that provides a comprehensive and yet easy to understand treatment of the fundamental physics underlying the broad field of atmospheric sciences.' Steven Businger, University of Hawaii
'... an up-to-date overview of the field, should be a strong candidate for undergraduate level classes that introduce the subject of atmospheric physics, and it is a worthy addition for the library of any scientist or engineer interested in the filed of atmospheric sciences.' Steven Businger, Journal of Geodesy
'... covers the three fundamental pillars of atmospheric physics - thermodynamics, radiation and fluid mechanics ... the strength of this book is the way it develops the fundamental ideas of atmospheric physics without introducing too much extraneous detail ... I expect this book to become a standard text for many atmospheric physics courses in future years.' Geraint Vaughan, Teaching Earth Sciences
'... a good textbook for a thorough introduction to atmospheric physics.' Jörg Matschullat, Environmental Geology

David Andrews has been a lecturer in Physics at Oxford University and a Physics tutor at Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford, for 20 years. During this time he has had extensive experience of teaching a wide range of physics courses, including atmospheric physics. This experience has included giving lectures to large student audiences and also giving tutorials to small groups. Tutorials, in particular, have given him insights into the kinds of problems that physics students encounter when learning atmospheric physics, and the kinds of topics that excite them. His broad teaching experience has also helped him introduce students to connections between topics in atmospheric physics and related topics in other areas of physics. He feels that it is particularly important to expose today's physics students to the excitements and challenges presented by the atmosphere and climate. He has also published a graduate textbook, Middle Atmosphere Dynamics, with J. R. Holton and C. B. Leovy (1987, Academic Press). He is a Fellow of the Royal Meteorological Society, a Member of the Institute of Physics, and a Member of the American Meteorological Society.
