Description

The prescient book that first linked specific weather disasters with man-made global warming . . . now in its second edition.


"The most readable and intelligent summary of global warming science and politics I have read... a valiant effort to make people actually care about global warming."

- Bill McKibben, New York Observer


"What Bob Reiss did to elevate our awareness of the destruction of the rain forest in The Road to Extrema, he has now done for global warming... Reiss bypasses political rhetoric and engages us in storytelling, showing us how the greenhouse effect is changing our lives, person by person, community by community, nation by nation."

- Terry Tempest Williams, author of Leap and Refuge, and winner of the John Muir Award and the Robert Marshall Award


"From massive waves in the Maldives to tornadoes over Tennessee, from the halls of Congress to the hard disks of scientists, Bob Reiss has taken climate change and made it personal. The Coming Storm is the layman's guide to global warming-fair, urgent, and deeply unsettling."

- Ted Conover, winner of the National Book Critics' Circle Award for Newjack


"With a storyteller's gifts, Bob Reiss shows how a series of freakish and colossally destructive weather events awakened scientists, politicians, and ordinary people to the momentous stakes of a changing climate... a compelling narrative of the people and events that have shaped this ever more urgent debate."

- Eugene Linden, author of The Future in Plain Sight and The Parrot's Lament


Free of unnecessary scientific jargon and filled with the human and political dimensions of this story, this book reads like a mystery novel where you already know the terrifying outcome. Adding a new preface by the author, this edition brings back to life the compelling account of the link between climate and weather disasters.
