Yes, and it has been changing since the earth formed 4,600,000,000 years ago. And it will continue to change long after the petroleum age is forgotten.\u003cbr\u003eThis book summarizes the science of climate change and the theory of global warming in a way that is understandable to ordinary people using a simple question and answer format. For those desirous of learning more, references to cited peer-reviewed scientific articles are provided. The book takes a geologic point of view, intentionally elevating data above predictions and forecasts, for this is what has made the scientific method so successful in advancing the human condition. The book does not discuss the politics of climate change, the economics, the merits of any particular policy direction or any point of view intentionally meant to favor one political party over another, whether liberal or conservative. Plenty of other books cover such topics.   The book makes it clear that today's climate is changing, just as has been true for the entire history of the earth, climate has always changed. This is the way of the earth. For nearly all of earth history, climate changed without human intervention. Today, however, many who seem to know nothing of earth history argue that today's slight change in climate is due to human use of coal and oil. They say all one has to do is to look at the science. That's exactly what this book does. Let's see where it takes us.\u003cbr\u003eBeware of false knowledge: it is more dangerous than ignorance.-\u003cem\u003eGeorge Bernard Shaw, \u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eMan and Superman, 1903\u003c\/em\u003e It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data.

After Nazi informers threaten Austrian physicist Lise Meitner, he works with his close friend, Klaus Duisberg, to mastermind her escape. Equally deceptive in affairs of the heart, Breker ends the latest in a long string of sexual escapades, this one with the young gymnast Clara Fischer, to begin planning his greatest challenge, the seduction of Duisberg's dangerously attractive but bored wife Teresia. Breker is surprised when nuclear chemist Otto Hahn, Meitner's thirty-year partner in research, rings his doorbell claiming the unbelievable, that atoms of uranium split apart to form different elements. With Germany far ahead of the rest of the world in atomic bomb research, Breker realizes that he must try to slow their progress by steering Heisenberg's thinking down blind alleys. As Duisberg threatens to turn his friend over to the Gestapo for his ultimate betrayal, Breker faces his greatest challenge, keeping Heisenberg from revealing the most dangerous nuclear secret of the war to the Nazi hierarchy.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51143543914769,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51143545487633,"sku":"NIN9781609770204","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/160977020X.jpg?v=1750799137"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-g-dedrick-robinson.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
