Name That Book

Name That Book Filter: I recall a book that was based on the eloquence and development of a scale. I believe it was about the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane scale... Maybe the Richter Scale. Did I just imagine this book? If not, what is the title author of said book?

Best answer: The book is "Defining the Wind" by Scott Huler. I've never read it, but I've seen it in the bargain section the last 4 or 5 trips I've made to the bookstore.

And, as I should have mentioned, the scale is the Beaufort wind force scale.
