Klappentext zu „Global Warming: Truth and Consequences “
Global Warming: Truth and Consequences is a guidebook for persons who are unfamiliar with the relevant details but want to know what anthropogenic global warming and its repercussions entail. The first chapter presents background material on the earth's climate system and some of the global warming rejecters' claims and their refutations, including the evidence underlying the reality of anthropogenic global warming. The next chapter examines in detail many of the global warming's contemporaneous and deleterious repercussions, while the final one considers some future scenarios and their likely consequences, some of which are from the latest IPCC Reports. It also presents a number of the proposed steps to avoid these consequences and the problems of implementing them.

Frank S. Levin, PhD, is an Emeritus Professor from Brown University, where he taught both undergraduate and graduate physics courses and carried out internationally recognized research. Soon after retiring he began teaching science courses for persons with neither a math nor a science background. Among these courses have been ones on global warming, an outgrowth of which is the current volume. Other courses have been on cosmology and on quantum ideas and phenomena, each of which has been the basis for popular science books: Calibrating the Cosmos (2007) and Surfing the Quantum World (2017). He is also the author of the undergraduate text An Introduction to Quantum Theory (2002). Bibliographische Angaben
