This author's point is quite different that what we usually hear
In the current furor of so much smug certainty about climate change , here is a gent - and scientist - with a different slant.
Climate change clarified
In a fast 194 pages, with 41 clear illustrations, Professor William Ruddiman gives us the benefit of his many years of experience in Environmental Sciences studying the onset and causes of climatic changes in general, and in particular with regard to the basis of global warming.
Turning back the clock on the Anthropocene.
When we talk about anthropogenic global warming, we tend to be referring to the dramatic rise in greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide since the beginning of the Industrial era, some two hundred years ago.
How to squeeze a theory that doesn't fit into an old shoe
It is regrettable that Ruddiman went unchallenged for so many years at the University of Virginia since I suspect that he might have left the door open for alternative ideas than the conclusions he erroneously came to in writing this book.
A great introduction and overview with ample speculation
The first half of 'Plows, Plagues, and Petroleum' provides a wonderfully concise and accessible introduction to climate changes science and climate-human interactions.
Very small print, good work, falls between big picture and farming
This is a fine book that ties with and falls slightly below and all of which I read in this week-end's series.
worthwhile addition to climate change issue

Exceptional book; well-reasoned; exemplary science; accessible
Bruce Trinque's review said much of it, but here is more support.
This book is NOT about global warming.
