Lightning books & papers to read?

[scilover]

I recommend “Lightning: Physics and Effects” by Vladimir A. Rakov and Martin A. Uman. The book is about lightning physics, lightning protection and the interaction of lightning with a variety of objects and systems with the environment. And also “How Dangerous Is Lightning” by Christian Bouquegneau and Vladimir Rakov. It talks about the physical effects of lightning as well as secondary effects, lightning protection, and the understanding of lightning.
