An Inconvenient Truth by Al Gore

An Inconvenient Truth – Gore’s groundbreaking, battle cry of a follow-up to the bestselling Earth in the Balance – is being published to tie in with a documentary film of the same name.

Both the book and film were inspired by a series of multimedia presentations on global warming that Gore created and delivers to groups around the world. With this book, Gore, who is one of our environmental heroes – and a leading expert – brings together leading-edge research from top scientists around the world; photographs, charts, and other illustrations; and personal anecdotes and observations to document the fast pace and wide scope of global warming. He presents, with alarming clarity and conclusiveness – and with humor, too – that the fact of global warming is not in question and that its consequences for the world we live in will be disastrous if left unchecked.

This riveting new book – written in an accessible, entertaining style – will open the eyes of even the most skeptical.
