　　? What has been the real impact of past weather extremes (e.g.

cold winters, droughts, floods, heatwaves and hurricanes) on

historic events? ? Is the frequency and impact of weather extremes

changing? ? Can we predict how the climate will behave in the

future and what will be the consequences of these changes? ? Are

greater, less predictable changes just around the corner? Bill

Burroughs seeks to answer these questions by providing a balanced

and accessible analysis of the current debate on climatic change.

Combining a historical perspective, economic and political

analysis, together with meteorological and climatological

explanations of the impact of extreme weather events on all aspects

of society, it provides a basis for interpreting what is known

about climatic change and the ability to forecast future changes

and their economic and political consequences. The book also

includes extensive discussions on El Ni?o. It will be of interest

to all those concerned with the future of human society.

　　? Explains impacts of climate change on history and on the future

- no other book does this for the general reader ? Author's close

involvement with government policy at senior levels brings a sense

of political realism to the analysis of issues which are the

subject of controversy ? Author's other books have done very well,

and he is a well-known writer and media correspondent for climate

change issues
