PITCH: «ESSENTIALS OF METEOROLOGY: AN INVITATION TO THE ATMOSPHERE is written by the most widely read and authoritative author in introductory meteorology, Donald Ahrens, together with a new coauthor -- meteorologist and award-winning science writer Robert Henson. Their ability to explain relatively complicated ideas in a student-friendly way allows both science and nonscience majors to visualize the principles of meteorology. The eighth edition's inviting narrative is supplemented by pedagogical features that encourage observing, calculating, and synthesizing information, while discussion of recent weather and climate events enhances student interest. Animations and data-based activities area available through the MindTap® online option.»

Apart from Google that crawls the whole web and downlists (if not delists) torrent links, multi-metasearch engines aiosearch.com, torrentz2.eu, torrentseeker.com, and re-indexers BitTorrent Database, zooqle.com will help you in your search for torrents (and only torrents) floating in torrent space. You can search these sites by keyword(s) from title or author's name and, with some, by hash code.
Remember that, once created, torrents never cease to exist even when de-indexed, DMCA'd or left for dead - unseeded. And that a torrent listed with no seeds on a particular set of trackers is not necessarily a dead torrent (Good critters inhabit the DHT-PEX layer though they aren't accounted for in torrent stats).
