See all formats and editions

Global warming and the resulting climate change is one of the most serious environmental problems facing the world community.

Global Warming: the Complete Briefing is the most comprehensive guide available to the subject.

A world-renowned expert, Sir John Houghton explores the scientific basis of global warming and the likely impacts of climate change on human society, before addressing the action that could be taken by governments, by industry and by individuals to mitigate the effects.

The first edition received excellent reviews, and this completely updated new edition (taking account of the latest IPCC Assessments, and now including questions at the end of chapters) will prove to be the best briefing the student or interested general reader could wish for.
