Review
Review of the hardback: 'The book will be of use to lecturers and supervisors ... who need to give students a rapid learning curve prior to field experiments and projects. Its style is appealing to those with little prior knowledge.' International Journal of Climatology
Review of the hardback: '... a useful basic primer for beginners in the field of environmental monitoring.' Progress in Environmental Science
Review of the hardback: 'The book is highly recommendable ... very well written, concise and clear.' Environmental Geology
Review of the hardback: '... well-written and easy to follow, even for non-specialists. ... extremely useful, as it helps put the measurements in context. ... I recommend this book to anybody involved in the collection or use of environmental data.' Weather
Review of the hardback: 'Written in a very readable fashion the author gives a broad view of the field of precipitation without being simplistic. He has used a descriptive style while introducing formulae only when that would expand insight for the reader. Everyone including professionals in the field of atmospheric services will gain new knowledge from this book.' Kenneth A. Devine, Meteorological Instrument Consultant, Ontario
Review of the hardback: '... elegantly presented and well edited and deserves a space in every hydrologist's bookshelf.' The Newsletter of the British Hydrological Society
Review of the hardback: '... an interesting book that deserves to be read by anyone interested in precipitation and our ability to observe climatic change.' Weather
Review of the hardback: 'This volume is a nice book for those who need a short and readable introduction into the subject of precipitation and its measurement. It will probably also be appreciated by those interested in the historical evolution of this subject. ... It can be recommended to students starting their studies in meteorology and to students and scientists in neighbouring disciplines who need an overview on the subject but who are not interested in explicit details.' Meteorologische Zeitschrift
