Description

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Heaven and Earth: Global Warming The Missing Science is a popular science book published in 2009 and written by Australian geologist and mining company director Ian Plimer. It argues against the scientific consensus on climate change, rejecting the view that global warming is "very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic (man-made) greenhouse gas concentrations" and asserting that the debate is being driven by what the author regards as irrational and unscientific elements. The book received positive reviews from the conservative press who called it "all the scientific ammunition climate change skeptics could want." Other reviewers, including scientists, criticised the book as unscientific, inaccurate, based on obsolete research, and internally inconsistent. Heaven and Earth was a bestseller among Australian independent bookstores when published in May 2009, and has already gone through five printings there, according to the publisher. The book has also been published in the United States and the United Kingdom.
