If anyone would like to learn about the science behind lightning protection systems that has evolved over the last 263 years and why they are effective and widely used throughout the world may wish to sign up for the Lifelong Learning College's course, Lightning Tips for Villagers. Dr Martin Uman's book, The Art and Science of Lightning Protection, is one of the key references for this course. Dr. Uman has been studying lightning at the University of Florida for over 40 years.
