Climategate: The Crutape Letters (Volume 1) (Paperback)
Steven Mosher and Thomas W. Fuller
The Climategate scandal covered from beginning to end--from 'Hide the Decline' to the current day. Written by two authors who were on the scene--Steven Mosher and Tom Fuller--Climategate takes you behind that scene and shows what happened and why. For those who have heard that the emails were taken out of context--we provide that context and show it is worse when context is provided. For those who have heard that this is a tempest in a teacup--we show why it will swamp the conventional wisdom on climate change. And for those who have heard that this scandal is just 'boys being boys'--well, boy. It's as seamy as what happened on Wall Street.

Thomas Fuller was born in Denver Colorado and currently lives in San Francisco. Trained by the U.S. Navy in electronics and cryptography, he has been writing about technology ever since, usually market research reports with exciting titles like 'Project Global Market for Infusion Pumps 2009-2014.' This is a lot of fun by comparison.

NOTA CAUSTICANTE DESTE BLOGGER:
O Marcelo Leite, jornalista da Folha de São Paulo, 'afirmacionista' do aquecimento global ser antropogenicamente provocado, vem 'dourando a pílula' dos cientistas do IPCC que fizeram a caca que fizeram lá no CRU. Os autores deste livro dizem que o quadro é muito pior quando os e-mails são considerados pelos seus contextos.
Eu, parafraseando o Marcelo Leite, "recomendo também, para quem manter a cabeça aberta sobre a questão" ler o livro CRUGATE, de Steven Mosher e Thomas W. Fuller, esses sim é que deveriam receber o Oscar e o prêmio Nobel de jornalismo.
