Written by Gwynne Dyer. Paperback edition published by Vintage Canada, 2009 (Hardcover edition published 2008 by Random House Canada). Description: |
| From one of the world's
great geopolitical analysts, a terrifying glimpse of the none-too-distant
future, when climate change will force the world's powers into a desperate
struggle for advantage and even survival. Dwindling resources. Massive population shifts. Natural disasters. Spreading epidemics. Drought. Rising sea levels. Plummeting agricultural yields. Crashing economies. Political extremism. These are some of the expected consequences of runaway climate change in the decades ahead, and any of them could tip the world towards conflict. Prescient, unflinching, and based on exhaustive research and interviews, Climate Wars promises to be one of the most important books of the coming years. "Well written and well argued, crammed with impressive interview material and wonderful personal vignettes." — Ottawa CitizenGwynne Dyer has served in the Canadian, British and American navies. He holds a Ph.D. in war studies from the University of London, has taught at Sandhurst and served on the Board of Governors of Canada's Royal Military College. Dyer writes a syndicated column that appears in more than 175 newspapers around the world. |
