Our Affair with El Nino: How We Transformed an Enchanting Peruvian Current into a Global Climate Hazard
S. George Philander
Until 1997, few people had heard of the seasonal current that Peruvians nicknamed El Nino. This book discusses the scientific, political, economic and cultural developments that shaped our perceptions of this force of nature. It outlines the history of El Nino, an innocuous current that appears off the coast of Peru around Christmas time.
