"Clear, analytical and compelling." -The Economist In this well-informed and hard-hitting response to the scaremongering of the climate alarmists, Nigel Lawson, former Secretary of State for Energy under Margaret Thatcher, argues that it is time for us to take a cool look at global warming. Lawson carefully and succinctly examines all aspects of the global warming issue: the science, the economics, the politics, and the ethics. He concludes that the conventional wisdom on the subject is suspect on a number of grounds, that global warming is not the devastating threat to the planet it is widely alleged to be, and that the remedy that is currently being proposed, which is in any event politically unattainable, would be worse that the threat it is supposed to avert. Argued with logic, common sense, and even wit, and thoroughly sourced and referenced, Lawson has written a long overdue corrective to the barrage of spin and hype to which the politicians and media have been subjecting the public on this important issue.

The author of this book Nigel Lawson is a politician of the British Conservative Party and served as finance minister from 1983 to 1989. In Lawsons opinion, the series of report on climate change of the IPCC prepared by thousands of scientists is completely a political conspiracy. In Lawsons eyes, the time-consuming climate negotiation of the United Nations is completely a tacit and to be failed game! There is no climate warming. Even if there is climate warming, it is not man-made. The thought of human to defeat the heaven is silly. From the scientific, political, economic and ethical perspectives, it comprehensively criticizes this false proposition, political plaything and economic fraud of climate change in the contemporary era.
