Editorial Review:
Much of the world is poised to take very drastic steps to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the hope that doing so will keep the world from becoming overheated. Indeed, some alarmists call for an 80% reduction in burning of fossil fuels (from which the world gets 85% of its energy) by 2050. But does CO2 really control climate? Perhaps we should look at the facts before committing to CO2 reduction policies that would surely be devastating. Hayden's Primer is based on the notion that the first step in understanding the relationship between CO2 and climate is to gather the facts. Outputs from computer programs are not data.

A must read for anyone who wants to understand the science of global warming 2008-11-16
This is a great book that discusses many of the claims of the global warming crowd and shows these claims to be either incorrect or greatly exaggerated. The author does a great job of presenting the science in a very understandable manner. It's a short book but filled with great information.
A good primer  2008-08-12
As one who is relatively well read in the literature of the GW debate, it's rare to find a book that gives a new insight into things. Although on the short side, this book is one such. Well written for the most part while sometimes covering complex things. The author argues convincingly (which may be easier than it sounds) against the accuracy of GCM's (Global Circulation Models).
The best short introduction to the topic 2008-06-15
If you care about climate change, read this book: it is much the best introduction to CO2 and climate change, and is a superb guide for those who seek to influence or to understand energy and climate change policy.
This is an EXCELLENT primer for climate change/global warming. 2008-04-28
This is an excellent book for those who have only basic science skills, yet have an interest in learning what a qualified scientist can teach them about fundamental science relating to climate change and global warming and their relationship to atmospheric CO2. You will learn that the theory espoused by Mr. Gore and the IPCC is baseless for the simple reason that the atmosphere does not work like a typical "greenhouse" and that, in any event, atmospheric CO2 is severely limited in its potential impact on climate and climate change. Highly recommended for both novices and those who are experienced with this topic.
Classical Gas! 2008-03-30
Well done, Howard Haden. A succinct and understandable tome on CO2 and its relationships to the earth's environment. I read this short book this evening as "desert" after the main course of "Climate Confusion" by Roy Spencer. Combine Hayden's information about the science and graphic representation (and misrepresentation) of measurements of temperature variations and CO2 levels (not to mention Milankovitch Cycles and ice ages) with Spencer's insights on weather, climate, and the economy and in the time span of a few hours, of enjoyable and understandable reading, I have learned more useful information on these topics than ever before. It would seem that Al Gore has some inconvenient explaining to do. . . and Hayden deserves (not carbon) credit for his excellent contribution in debunking the CO2 = global warming myth.
