The Discovery of Global Warming by Spencer R Weart
In 2001 an international panel of climate scientists declared that the world was warming at a rate without precedent during at least the last two millennia. How scientists reached that conclusion is the story Weart tells in The Discovery of Global Warming. The award-winning book is now revised and expanded to reflect the latest science.
Charting the evolution and confirmation of the theory [of global warming], Weart dissects the interwoven threads of research and reveals the political and societal subtexts that colored scientists’ views and the public reception their work received-- Andrew C. Revkin * New York Times Book Review *
Spencer R. Weart is Director Emeritus of the Center for History of Physics of the American Institute of Physics.
