"It is hoped that this book can help readers who have a limited knowledge of the climate change controversy to better understand some of the issues at the heart of the debate about catastrophic man-made global warming, commonly referred to as climate change. I leave it to readers to form their own opinions on the climate science of dangerous man-made global warning and global change."--Preface
