Includes bibliographical references (p. 238-252) and index.

Types of lightning discharges and lightning terminology -- Incidence of lightning to areas and structures -- Electrical structure of thunderclouds -- Properties of the downward negative lightning discharge to ground -- Calculation of lightning electromagnetic fields -- Modeling of lightning processes -- Measurement of lightning electric and magnetic fields -- Electromagnetic methods of lightning location -- Lightning damaging effects and protective techniques.

"It presents the current state-of-the-art in lightning science including areas such as lightning modeling, calculation of lightning electromagnetic fields, electromagnetic methods of lightning location, and lightning damaging effects and protective techniques. Pedagogical features designed to facilitate class learning include end-of-chapter summaries, further reading suggestions, questions and problems, and a glossary explaining key lightning and atmospheric electricity terms. A selection of appendices are provided at the end of the book, which include detailed derivations of exact equations for computing electric and magnetic fields produced by lightning"--
