“If you have more than a passing interest in the weather, then ‘Treading on Thin Air’ by Dr. Elizabeth Austin will be a great read. Austin has the ability of taking highly complex concepts and putting them into terms that aren\u2019t just understandable, but instead, brings the reader into her world of passion for the weather.\u201d<\/p>\n

“Curiosity and the joy of adventure” are the drivers behind Elizabeth Austin’s choices as an atmospheric physicist and lover of Nature. Her book is a delightful read for scientists, citizen scientists and anyone curious about Life on Earth. Each chapter has a unique story, visits to fascinating places around the world, meetings with reknown scientists and an occasional smattering of classic poetry! Austin takes her readers on one adventure after another through the eyes of a meteorologists including D-Day, John F. Kennedy Jr.’s plane crash, frightening incidents caused by shifting weather patterns, the GAIA hypothesis and her own fascinating research projects. The discussion on climate change and humanities role in this reality is relevant to everyone! One of my favorite lines: “If humans lived to be 400, we would live very differently.” We would see clearly the unintended consequences of our choices. Bravo!<\/p>\n

Outstanding book describing how the author followed her desire to be a scientist and succeeded in a male dominated world, especially in the field of atmospheric science. The descriptions of her forensic cases illustrate how a meteorologist can be real weather detective.<\/p>\n
