Covers essential parts of cloud and precipitation physics and has been extensively rewritten with over 60 new illustrations and many new and up to date references. Many current topics are covered such as mesoscale meteorology, radar cloud studies and numerical cloud modelling, and topics from the second edition, such as severe storms, precipitation processes and large scale aspects of cloud physics, have been revised. Problems are included as examples and to supplement the text.
undergrad classes: you HAVE to get the newest edition of this $200 book if you get the one from literally just last year it will be horrifically out of date and you won't be able to do any of the homework problems
grad classes: Yeah so the best textbook on this subject hasn't been updated since 1989
