It covers just about everything and is written in a non-technical, easy style. Young's prose evokes rich imagery and at times waxes poetic, usually only at the ends of chapters. At various places she emphasizes that there is much still unknown about the atmosphere and that humanity's modification of its gas and particulate content is a potentially dangerous experiment that would be difficult to reverse were it to become a threat to mankind's survival. A most enjoyable and informative reading experience. Too bad we don't have a more recent book on this subject as good as this one." ; 10.0 X 7.0 X 0.7 inches; 306 pages .

About Dr. Bookman - All Books Tightly Packaged in Cardboard
We have an eclectic array of used and out of print books for you in our inventory. Service is key to our relationship with you. You get \"Old School\" service with Dr. Bookman. We can\'t look at each other in the eye, shake each others hand, or walk into the shop the next day if we\'re disatisfied. I understand that vulnerability. You are purchasing a product sight unseen. That means I must be honest with you about exactly what you are buying. You might find my descriptions more detailed than most others, but when purchasing online, I want you to know exactly what you\'re buying. I don\'t want you to feel surprised when you open the box. And by the way, almost all of our books are shipped in cardboard packaging designed just for books. That means you get it the way it left here.
