Recenzii
"This book is an excellent complement to Philander’s 1990 textbook...The writing has plenty of humor, is self-deprecating, and is easy to read. I found the book to be an excellent text for graduate teaching, and I plan on using it as required text in the ENSO course I will teach this coming Fall." - Ben Kirtman, Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, July 2011 issue
