A brilliant defense of climate science.
Libeled, ridiculed, and maliciously harassed by climate deniers, Michael Mann at last fights back in this important book with dignity and grace. Unlike the way he was treated, Mann treats his critics fairly and truthfully. He tells the truth about what it is like to be a climate scientist when the most powerful corporate interests on the planet are not at all interested in the truth. They prefer lies, and, reading Mann's book, it is clear they have mobilized their vast resources to keep us in the dark about the harm they are doing to the planet. Michael Mann is a truth teller, and the book he has written is a terrifying story about how the truth is endangered. Buy it and read it!
