Global Warming and Other Bollocks 
Customer Ratings: - Global warming & other bollocks. If you ever had any doubts about global warming and mankind s contribution, read this entertaining book and you will have your doubts totally confirmed.
- Very illuminating.. This book explains the pros and cons for virtually every scare story of recent years giving an unbiased view of what is believeable and what is just propaganda used by governments and others to tax the public more than is reasonable. It explains how easy it is for people in any sort of power to manipulate so called facts and figures to mean the opposite of what they really mean. For anyone looking to find out how they are being lied to on a daily basis by authority figures, this is a must read.
- vox pop is not science. Catchy title with re-use of punk iconography, but so what. This book is a collection of sometimes interesting, but often poorly substantiated opinion pieces. Polemic yes, but whether it is well informed is hard to tell. A list of further reading is not the same as referencing where information comes from. If you are a climate change sceptic, there are other books to add to your armoury. If you are a climate change believer this is just more noise amongst the considerable volume already out there.
- Rubbish. This is a dreadful book -- the title is a good indicator of the mindset of the authors. I believe that warming (and now cooling) is mainly caused by natural cycles, and that the AGW panic is a total disgrace. However, this books doesn t exactly help sceptics. The chapter on AGW is bad, but others chapters are worse. If you are interested in a sound book critical of AGW theories, read Peter Taylor s Chill which is available on Amazon. Chill is a super book written by an invironmental campaigner who debinks the consensus on AGW.
- Global warrming--some sense at last !. We are constantly fed scientific rubbish by politicians and others who have no idea what they are saying and fail to comprehend the consequences of their actions. This book, succinctly, puts reasoned and well thought out arguments that cut through the hype we so often hear. It s a taster and makes you want to learn more from a more in depth book.
