[edit] Change in the Weather
An eye-opening, authoritative exploration of the forces that will shape our uncertain future.
In The Change In The Weather veteran New York Times science reporter William Stevens presents the first comprehensive look at the science of climatic change and reveals that we are at the dawn of a new era of climate, in which conditions once regarded as extreme will become increasingly commonplace. How did we get here? How bad is it - and how much worse will it get? These are the questions faced by the scientists Stevens introduces to readers, explaining the means by which they assemble far-flung instances of storms, droughts, and everyday anomalies - in short, the weather we all experience in our own backyards - into a picture of global natural forces at work. And most importantly, he examines today's critical effort to discover if in fact we have already set into motion profound climatic change that we can't control - the so-called 'greenhouse effect' of human-induced global warming. An eye-opening, authoritative exploration of the forces that will shape our uncertain future, The Change In The Weather is intelligent non-fiction at its most commercially relevant.
