{"product_id":"historical-perspectives-on-climate-change-james-rodger-fleming-9780195189735","title":"Historical Perspectives on Climate Change","description":"This intriguing volume provides a thorough examination of the historical roots of global climate change as a field of inquiry, from the Enlightenment to the late twentieth century. Based on primary and archival sources, the book is filled with interesting perspectives on what people have understood, experienced, and feared about the climate and its changes in the past. Chapters explore climate and culture in Enlightenment thought; climate debates in early America; the development of international networks of observation; the scientific transformation of climate discourse; and early contributions to understanding terrestrial temperature changes, infrared radiation, and the carbon dioxide theory of climate. But perhaps most important, this book shows what a study of the past has to offer the interdisciplinary investigation of current environmental problems.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Rodger Fleming\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0195189736\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780195189735\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/14\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.45d","brand":"James Rodger Fleming","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45896394178815,"sku":"9780195189735","price":51.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ea9fa7e0-cc42-4540-9351-df08eac243db.jpg?v=1721371278","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/historical-perspectives-on-climate-change-james-rodger-fleming-9780195189735","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
