Reviews

''Lucid, lively, and comprehensive analyses apply the smartest political theory to the toughest climate challenges, with an especially penetrating critique of negative emissions technologies. McKinnon brings reasoned grounds for hope to the stark reality of current failure on climate change.'' Henry Shue, Merton College, Oxford, author of The Pivotal Generation ''A rich and compelling introduction to this vital topic from a leader in the field. McKinnon's insight, expertise, and humanity shine through. For students, teachers, and all those interested in our future on this planet.'' Stephen Gardiner, University of Washington
