From acclaimed writer and physicist Mark Bowen, Censoring
Science tells the true story of the Bush administration’s
censorship of the world’s preeminent climatologist, and the
science behind global warming that they do not want you to know. The facts don’t lie:
• 2005 was the warmest year since the invention of the
thermometer.
• 2006 is on track to become the hottest year ever recorded
in the United States.
• The six hottest years on record have occurred in the last
eight years, and the twenty-two hottest years on record have
occurred in the last twenty-six years. Preeminent climatologist and leading NASA scientist Dr.
James Hansen has been studying climate for over three
decades. It was his testimony to a Senate committee in 1988
that first brought the threat of global warming to the
world’s attention. In January 2006, news broke that the Bush
administration had been attempting to censor Dr.
Hansen—obscuring his message and suppressing the vast body
of his scientific work, which unequivocally demonstrates the
reality and immense danger of global warming. Now, for the first time and with unfiltered access, writer
and physicist Mark Bowen finally tells the exclusive story
of Hansen’s decades-long battle to bring the truth about
global warming to light. Censoring Science illuminates the
real science behind global warming and maintains that we can
still prevent environmental disaster, while both
strengthening our economy and our national security. In the
tradition of Ron Suskind’s blockbuster bestseller, The Price
of Loyalty, Censoring Science exposes the truth behind the
administration’s spin doctors, and shares the inside story
of one of the most important and influential scientists of
our time.
