Environmental Science
The climate change debate has now reached the mainstream 
and, as might be expected, more books are being published 
on the subject than ever before, from scientific analyses to 
popular treatments. The Editor's Choice lists a representative 
selection, including Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth and 
George Monbiot's Heat. As an accessible reference on the 
subject, Earthscan's Atlas of Climate Change is hard to 
beat, but Global Warming in the 21st Century can claim 
to be definitive. Policy options are discussed in What is Next 
After the Kyoto Protocol?, while Creating a Climate for 
Change will examine how the problems can be publicly 
explained.
