This book takes a bit to get into it - if you stick with it through the set up, you'll be rewarded. Even if you don't agree with "global warming" (and I don't have a requirement that I agree with every topic I read up on!), it's still a fascinating (and complex) read! This is not a book to casually read on the beach; it's more of a sit by the fireplace with your afghan and a cup of hot tea and read, read, read. Probably my only real complaint is that sometimes the technical explanations moved out of the realm of interesting and on to the realm of tedious. However, all in all, this was an interesting and worth your time to read.
