It is a history that, at last, gives a sense of real people, much like investigators today and no less competent, struggling to develop a data base and a set of concepts rich enough to treat some of the most vexing problems in all science. Chapter topics include: Early Applications of the Principles of Adiabatic Change and Vertical Convection • Early Applications of the First Law of Thermodynamics • Emergence of the Thermal Theory of Cyclones • The Thermal Theory Put to Observational Test • Modifications of the Thermal Theory • Toward the Wave or Polar Front Theory of Cyclones 256 pages $25 AMS Members Hard Cover $35 Nonmembers (add $2.00 postage and handling) Send order and remittance to: Historical AMERICAN METEOROLOGICAL SOCIETY Monograph 45 BEACON ST., BOSTON, MASS. 02108 ISBN 0-933876-48-3 Series Bulletin American Meteorological Society 409
