Reviews
Gavin Schmidt, a NASA climatologist, has in many ways become the news media's conscience on climate science, exposing exaggeration and opinion in climate coverage...[a] no-nonsense approach., A broad diversity of images that are, in many cases, truly arresting...informative discussions of the key issues in climate science and policy...The numerous 'Cool, I didn't know that!' moments are an enjoyable aspect...[A]n important contribution., A combination of arresting images and lucid explanations of the science of global warming and the pursuit of global cooperation in adopting new, sustainable ways of living....the coverage is clear and bracing....In the midst of sobering reportage, the authors manage to appeal to our fascination with epic challenges., [A]n impressive, informative and surprisingly accessible work, leaps and bounds ahead of the half-baked analysis consumers have come to expect from the corporate media...compelling., [A] masterful account of the science of climate change...It will leave you both in awe of the Earth we inhabit and of the science itself, with all of its uncertainties and incomplete answers., The first book anyone seeking a layman's understanding of the science of global warming should read...one of the most reasonable, unflappable, pleasantly humorous and least stuffy experts in any subject that we've met.

    Great experience purchasing from them. The item arrived so well packed and secured that it took me around 5+ minutes just to open fully. Condition was as advertised (photos were accurate), price was exceptional, and the item was delivered ahead of schedule. I hope to be able to buy from them again!

    Items came exactly as described. All of the Blu rays and steelbook look fantastic. I am very happy with the quality of the product. The value I got, for the condition of the items is fantastic. I was able to make use of a “buy 8, get 50%” deal, which made the value quite incredible actually. Items were packaged professionally and shipped with care. All items were individually bubble wrapped and shipped in a box. Shipping was fast via USPS with tracking. I would do business with the seller again
