Description
"One significant contribution of the book is the authors' emphasis that there is a continuum to climate skepticism (rather than it being a dichotomy between deniers and everyone else). . . . Another strength of the book is its strong and relatively exhaustive review of the literature. The authors have done a great job of identifying relevant sources, including those outside of sociology, in disciplines such as psychology, environmental studies, and communication, and for this reason alone, the book will be valuable to students of climate skepticism. . . . The book is an obvious choice for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses in environmental sociology and the sociology of climate change, and perhaps also for courses on the sociology of knowledge and science; but it is also sufficiently accessible to be of great interest to the general reader." -- "Contemporary Sociology"
