In production at Cambridge University Press: ‘Fifty Books That Changed The Climate: A Personal Selection’

My final manuscript for this new book is now in production with Cambridge University Press. Follow this link to find out more about the book’s origins and development. The short marketing blurb for the book is here:

Climate change did not become one of the defining issues of our age through science alone. It has also been shaped by the books that explained it, debated it, challenged it and imagined its consequences. Drawing on his lifelong career as a climate change researcher, educator, policy adviser and public commentator, Mike Hulme carefully selects fifty of the most influential climate change books published since the early 1980s. Combining historical insight with personal reflection, including diary excerpts, professional experiences and conversations with some of the authors, Hulme shows that while the physical climate has changed, ideas about climate change have changed too. From influential scientific texts and policy manifestos to memoirs, dictionaries and fiction, Fifty Books That Changed the Climate offers a unique intellectual history of climate change told through the books that helped define it.
