Synopsis

Philip Eden is the much admired weather and climate correspondent of The Daily Telegraph. In this follow-up to his hugely successful book The Book of Weather, the author now goes further to explore and explain the weather and climate changes which concern and obsess us. This is a fascinating look at how the weather has behaved throughout history and could impact on the next generations. Thought-provoking views and a passion for his subject make this new book a compulsive read. Changing climate or no there is one sentiment which pervades our feelings about the weather during our lifetimes: it isn't what it used to be. How many times have we heard remarks like 'Summers are not what they used to be when we were children. Speculations about the future can only be that, but sensible people would prefer informed speculation to the other kind. Eden provides a comprehensive historical context within which present climatic events and trends can be viewed and a sober sound scientific background against which present and future climatic change can be considered.
