In this controversial work, Lomborg presents a second generation of thinking on global warming that believes panic is neither warranted nor a constructive place from which to deal with any of humanity's problems.

Reviews

"Brimming with useful facts and common sense. . . . [Lomborg's] analysis is smart and refreshing, and it may bridge at least one divide in our too divided culture."
--"The Wall Street Journal"
"A reasoned addition to the debate about what to do about climate change. . . . Sure to provoke much controversy."
--"Esquire"
"Bjorn Lomborg is the best-informed and most humane advocate for environmental change in the world today. . . . [He] and "Cool It" are our best guides to our shared environmental future."
--Michael Crichton
"[A] calm, civil, even-handed analysis. ["Cool It"] is suffused with concern for socially beneficial priorities and for practical steps to do good. . . . It provides some badly needed balance."
--"Financial Times"
