This is a straightforward, fascinating and powerful users' guide to the planet, one that leaves us no doubt we need to make some pretty serious changes in our standard operating procedures, and pronto.
Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature
Mixed in with some well known facts and interesting anecdotes, this book packs a world of sound, scientific information over a very wide range of subjects, all of it explained in a most unpretentious, engaging manner. Bravo!
Ernesto Castro, architect.
This book does a masterful job of explaining a complex topic while including all sorts of interesting historical tidbits, like the fact that the Egyptians invented sailing in 3200BC. And your conclusions about global warming and what we must do NOW are completely convincing.
Beverly Jacobson, author.
Fun, informative, and ultimately gripping, Why the Wind Blows is a welcome addition to the growing voice for action on global warming.
Civil Engineering, July 2007.
It is a useful and interesting book for a general audience; and clearly written.
Dr. Alan K. Betts, Atmospheric Research, environmental scientist
