The volume under review has its goal 'to give a reliable description of various global atmospheric properties' including process which involves 'ions, oxygen atoms, excited atomic particles and ozone molecules'. ... The book is arranged to systematically present the required principles and practice. ... Given the continued vital interest in the processes underway in the Earth's atmosphere, this book will serve well the reader who wishes to participate in scientific studies of the complex system in which we live.
