- Summary
- "A Cloud a Day urges all of us to keep our heads in the clouds with 365 fascinating formations from Pretor-Pinney's extraordinary collection that combines cloud images with a short piece of cloud science, an inspiring sky quotation, or a detail of the sky depicted in a classic painting. They are clouds to inspire a moment of calm atmospheric contemplation each day. The book helps explain almost every kind of cloud type in easy laymen terms"--
