too many errors June 7, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is an adjunct to a meteorology class I am taking. It is full of errors, mathmatical ones, graphics, even page numbers. I expect better from Pearson. I don't know who edited this book but they did a poor job.
Also the labs do not flow particularly well, and some things don't make sense. Not the greatest teaching tool I have ever seen, even with the cool CD.
