Reviews
'Because of the significance of the subject matter and the clarity of the exposition, this book likely will become a standard reference in the near future.' Book Review
'... a substantial collection of well-written articles ...' Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union
'We found the book very interesting reading and strongly recommend it as an encyclopedia on trajectory-related methods, as well as an historical expose over the dynamic development of a relatively new and viable branch of contemporary oceanography - a development that Joseph Luis Lagrange himself would have been delighted to see.' Marine and Geographical Researches
