Recensione

'... excellent.' The Bookseller

''This book will serve as more than a record of another conference or event. It will provide an invaluable resource for all people wishing to enhance global understanding of the science of climate change and the need for humanity to act to tackle the problem.' So writes UK Prime Minister Tony Blair in the preface to the book Avoiding Global Climate Change, and he is right. ... this book is the best summary of the state of knowledge that is currently available.' Acid News

'... a very impressive volume ... coverage is comprehensive, and, thanks to the revisions made by the distinguished authors, very up to date. ... very extensive lists of references. The book is illustrated by tables, graphs, diagrams and figures, many in full colour and, as we have come to expect from CUP is impeccably produced on high quality paper and bound in such a way that it can be opened flat at any point, invaluable for close study ... this volume must surely be a 'must' for all reference and University libraries. We all owe a great debt to CUP for producing such a valuable volume so promptly.' The International Journal of Meteorology

'This one text that has lived up to its reputation. It provides what few others do: a very detailed critique with crucial data in a limited space ... a key text summarising the current state of generally accepted knowledge. ... this must rate as one of the best texts this year on the subject: a definite addition to higher education libraries and an invaluable tool for teachers who really want to answer key questions with authority.' TE News

' ... the book is an important publication which summarizes the available information on climate change and tis impacts as for 2006. In a much more condensed form than the official IPCC reports it helps to convey the legacy of climate research to policy-makers and decision-makers.' Meteorologische Zeitschrift
