A World of Weather: Fundamentals of Meteorology,  by Jon M. Nese, Lee M.
Grenci, David J. Mornhinweg, and Timothy W. Owen.  A textbook meant for 
college-level introductory meteorology courses, designed to introduce 
students to the behavior of the atmosphere and the fundamentals of 
meteorology.  Chapter introductions are available at

  "An introductory undergraduate textbook requiring very little background (freshman physics and chemistry; in fact most of the book is accessible to someone who has had good high school courses.) Lower-level than your other suggestions but very useful. Should be required reading for all netters :)." (Robert Parson, reviewer)

  Climate System Modeling, edited by Kevin Trenberth, Cambridge University Press, 1992.  ISBN 0-521043231-6.  "[This] is an extremely valuable contribution that goes well beyond previous texts in terms of comprehensive treatment of the climate system....including an introduction to the physical and human dimensions of the climate system, the components of the climate system (atmosphere, ocean, land surface), modeling and parameterization, system coupling and interactions, sensitivity experiments, and futur

e prospects....For those who want more than passing knowledge before applying model results, Climate System Modeling should be a reference of choice."
