Book review: Science Vs. Climate Change
The text is colorful with photos and diagrams that are easy to understand. Several features break up the pages. A glossary, index, and book and web references are included. The book provides a good basic overview of climate change, its current and potential impacts, and a view to the future. It provides a good platform for discussing what science is and does and how society, culture, government, and economic issues come into play in addressing an issue of global scale.
