Book Reviews of Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years,Updated and Expanded Edition

Book Review: Bridging the Gap Between Lay Knowledge and Scholarship
Summary: 5 Stars

For those looking for something between Roy Spencer and inaccessible climatology and econometric studies, this book may be perfect.

Singer and Avery provide not only arguments but also analysis of data from both climate change adherents and climate change skeptics. Their writing is accessible for those without a background in climatology or statistics, but the it does not suffer from the unfortunate "watering down" that afflicts many widely-marketed books dealing with science.

Though not footnoted quite as much as I like (I prefer Bjorn Lomborg's incredible numbers of references), Singer and Avery provide either in-text or footnote citations with more than enough information to bring both sides of the debate into focus.

Hearing about climate change day-in and day-out during graduate school, I have needed a primer on the topic--and this has been absolutely perfect. If you're looking for a book that will brief you on climate change and deal fairly with the all-too-frequent anthropogenic (human made) warming arguments, you can stop your search now. I would gladly buy Avery and Singer again and likely will, as gifts for like-minded friends.

Summary of Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years,Updated and Expanded Edition

In this New York Times bestseller, authors Singer and Avery present the compelling concept that global temperatures have been rising mostly or entirely because of a natural cycle. Using historic data from two millennia of recorded history combined with natural physical records, the authors argue that the 1,500 year solar-driven cycle that has always controlled the earth's climate remains the driving force in the current warming trend.
