The second edition of this magisterial volume expands and develops ideas and concepts presented in the first one, updating it to the state of the art. This is the only text to gather, under one cover, a wealth of detail on atmospheric chemistry that covers all aspects of the atmospheric system. A short introductory chapter sets out the scope of the project describing in some detail the processes and methodology used in research in this field, as well as several specific problems facing a scientist. A comprehensive discussion of the chemical evolution of the atmosphere follows, then an overview of the climate change and climate system with details on cloud and precipitation chemistry. Two more massive chapters detail the fundamentals of climatic physico-chemistry and a description and analysis of chemical reactions in the climate system and the substances involved. Appendices cover acronyms and abbreviations, quantities and units, and the geological timescale. A lengthy bibliography provides necessary information for more advanced research.
