520			_a Climate change owing to global warming is a paramount concern for society in the twenty-first century, and it is not an issue that can be solved by individual academic or scientific disciplines working in isolation. Because climate change involves a wide range of interlinked problems, solutions must be pursued in an interdisciplinary manner. This book adopts a holistic approach in examining various aspects of global warming, and offers readers a comprehensive overview.--Publisher's description.
