From the book reviews: "The book contains a wealth of information, presented factually with some excellent graphics and up-to-date references. It is therefore an excellent synthesis that intersects meteorology with different fields of engineering and policy discussed from the point of view of industry, government agencies, academia, and the electric utilities, making it valuable to a wide audience. ... A valuable reference source for advanced audiences. ... Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students, researchers/faculty, and professionals/practitioners." (R. J. Barthelmie, Choice, Vol. 52 (2), October, 2014)
