Features: In the 21st century, humanity has entered the information society, and information technology, supported by microelectronics technology and computer networks, has been extensively integrated into various government departments, industries, and households. Along with this, the rapid development of thunderstorms has become inseparable. As a result, the lightning protection market has expanded extremely rapidly, with a large number of people switching careers to the lightning protection field, urgently needing to learn modern lightning protection technology knowledge. Additionally, university students in various disciplines also need to have a basic understanding of modern lightning protection. Due to the relatively underdeveloped stage of lightning science and the involvement of humanities in lightning protection mitigation, lightning protection requires a broad foundation of basic scientific knowledge. This book adapts to this situation by not only extensively introducing the fundamental knowledge of natural and humanities sciences but also presenting the actual conditions of thunderstorms and lightning protection both domestically and internationally, with a focus on cultivating readers' scientific thinking methods and innovative spirit. This book can serve as a professional textbook for lightning protection practitioners and can also be used as a reference book for university teachers, graduate students, and undergraduates in science and engineering disciplines.
