We live at the bottom of an ocean of air ' 5,200 million million tons, to be exact. It sounds like a lot, but Earth's atmosphere is smeared onto its surface in an alarmingly thin layer ' 99 percent contained within eighteen miles. Yet within this fragile margin lies a magnificent realm ' at once gorgeous, terrifying, capricious, and elusive.With his keen eye for identifying and uniting seemingly unrelated events, Chris Dewdney reveals the invisible rivers in the sky that affect how our weather works and the structure of clouds and storms and seasons, the rollercoaster of climate.
