"The Weather Makers" by Tim Flannery, All you wanted to know about Global Warming

An excellent book that appears to answer all the skeptical questions raised by JREF members.

I recommend every one goes out and buys a copy. For a non-scientist such as myself, it is very frustrating to take part in debates on this topic. Every point that has been raised in debates here is addressed by Flannery. If you were a doubter of the theory of Anthropogenic Global Warming, you won't be after reading this. It is well written, easy to understand, (for somone with a smattering of education in science), and, to my mind, quite conclusive. AGW is real, and needs to be addressed ASAP. The longer the issue is ignored, the worse the consequences will be.
