Art Bell Libri

Da anni gli scienziati ci avvertono dei rischi dell'effetto serra e del progressivo riscaldamento della temperatura terrestre, catastrofi ambientali (siccità o inondazioni devastanti) colpiscono vaste regioni del pianeta. Secondo gli autori c'è motivo di credere che questi mutamenti climatici sfoceranno in una serie di tempeste di violenza inimmaginabile, preludio a un nuovo diluvio o a una nuova glaciazione. Questo libro alterna i dati forniti dalla storia e dalla scienza ad una vivida descrizione romanzesca dell'imminente tempesta globale.

Discover the riveting, hilarious true story of the birth of Comedy Central in what New York Times bestselling author, Dan Lyons, calls the "funniest behind-the-scenes memoir I've ever read, full of crazy characters, plot twists, and suspense."
