An Inconvenient Truth: The Crisis of Global Warming

VP Gore was spot on in his scientific predictions.

I have seen the DVD and obviously was impressed. I got the book because I wanted to be able to get more details on the information Al Gore presents on the DVD, and the book provides that abundantly.This one lone man courageously and determinedly crusades on and on, in the past with little encouragement, to research global warming and the warn the world, at least those who will listen. Where are the scientists that (probably because of money under the table, so the speak) denied global warming for so long? Hard to do so now. Now the corporate-motivated trick is to deny that at least part of global warming is man-made, this in the face of mounting evidence.If you have children, or grandchildren, my advice: Don't hide your head in the sand. You owe it to them to become informed.Get this book or the DVD. Very well written, very well made.

I had watched the video which Mr Gore made and I found that this book is the written version of it.It is very clearly written, and illustrations impacted on me and helped a lot.The book lacks technical data and scientific foundations, which would be a good complement. Some photographs comparing past and present time of same locations do not indicate the month in which they were taken. We must assume that they correspond to the same season but it is not clearly indicated.I recommend it as good reading for everybody interested in the subject and specially for young people.

Spectacular!! A lot of good photography, and background information.

I purchased this book in an attempt to find out more about global warming and the associated global climate change. Having heard so much about the book and video, I felt that the work might be worth reviewing. I was saddly disappointed! Mr. Gore's book is a sham, nothing more than a 7th grade reading level, or lower, picture book with sound bite captions. There is no scientific information, only cleaverly manipulated photos and catchy personal opinions and catch-phrases. If this is what earned Mr. Gore his Nobel Prize, then that too is a sham. Any thinking person would see right through this book...there is nothing of value in the book and no real information. If this is considered a definitive work on the global warming, then the the state of science is saddley misdirected.

I like this book becuase it has tuaght me a lot about being aware of the things that are happening around the world. This book explains global warming in depth and how everything we do has an effect on our environment and community. I love all the pictures inside! This is definitely a cool book to read to bring out environmental awareness.

Its a great book for everyone. It is simplified and written in an understandable form. I bought a few of them for my kids and my nephews. Their ages range from 7 to 10. They have used the book to help with Science project info and we read chapters together to inforce science and social issues we all face.

Good written and pictorial display of how our world is changing.

Good reading. Very 'eye opening', although I was always a believer in global warming. This book gives one more insight into what's going on with the earth and the interaction with mankind.Highly recommended for everyone, especially at the high school level.

Gore set the tone for climate alarmism and polarization. None of the dire scenarios he paints here are factual. He is deliberately trying to scare people into action but sets the stage for thinking about climate in the wrong way. He sings the "we need to act soon song" without the slightest idea of what needs to be done.

All millienials should read this book and plan activities to reduce carbon emission so that their children and grand-children can live in a better world.

ノーベル平和賞を受賞したゴア元米副大統領の地球温暖化に関するわかりやすい本だが、中味としては、カラー写真が多いというだけが取り柄です。
