Dr. Pat Fitzpatrick Announces his 2nd Hurricane Book
November 8, 2004Dr. Pat Fitzpatrick of the GeoResources Institute's Stennis office has just authored his 2nd book about Hurricanes. The draft of Hurricanes: A Reference Handbook, Second Edition has been sent to the publisher (ABC-CLIO). After some edits and formatting, the book should be published in Spring 2005 or early Summer 2005. The book is a reference book, and as such the publisher's primary customer is libraries. However, it has something for everybody, and is suitable for students and the general public as well as specifically for emergency preparedness officials, public officials, and meteorologists.
