| Summary: | "Over two hundred illustrations, many in full color, capture for both the layman and scientist the beautiful optical effects chat we see in the sky. The author describes and explains these effects in non-technical language. In addition co discussing such well-known phenomena as rainbows and halos, he treats the rarer ones, including sun pillars, sun dogs, glories, and mirages. Computer simulations and simplified mathematical models are used co make the physical origins of these events intelligible. The book sensitizes readers co a wide range of optical phenomena in the sky, explains how co look for chem, and imparts an increased awareness and aesthetic appreciation of these fascinating effects"-- |
