From Steve McIntyre's earliest attempts to reproduce the Michael Mann's Hockey Stick graph, to the explosive publication of his work and the launch of a congressional inquiry, The Hockey Stick Illusion is a remarkable tale of scientific misconduct and amateur sleuthing. It explains the complex science of this most controversial of temperature reconstructions in layperson's language and lays bare the remarkable extent to which climatologists have been willing to break their own rules in order to defend climate science's most famous finding.

Précurseur du global warming, Mann avança dès les années 1770 que la terre se réchauffait et évalua la part des causes anthropiques et physiques. Il s’illustra dans la « saga du Passage du Nord-Ouest » en menant des expériences sur la congélation de l’eau de mer. Il dénonça les pratiques de pêche destructrices de la chaîne alimentaire maritime et de la biodiversité. Auteur d’une œuvre considérable, il développa des thèses démographiques annonçant Malthus.

"Quantifier les variations passées du climat et du cycle de l'eau atmosphérique à partir d'archives naturelles, utiliser ces informations pour évaluer les modèles de climat, mieux anticiper les changements à venir et prendre la mesure de l'influence humaine : telles sont les grandes lignes des travaux de recherche de Valérie Masson-Delmotte. Revenant sur sa participation à de grands projets menés notamment au Grœnland, elle restitue également son expérience au sein du GIEC, en tant que co-présidente d'un des groupes de travail, de 2015 à 2023. Tout au long de son parcours professionnel, elle a pris conscience de la nécessité de s'engager pour la démocratisation et l'appropriation des connaissances scientifiques vis-à-vis du changement climatique, et des leviers d'action permettant d'en limiter les risques. Elle multiplie les prises de parole publiques, œuvre à la formation des décideurs, et mène des actions au quotidien. Avec ce livre, elle nous fait mesurer l'importance des sciences du climat pour être acteurs et actrices de ces transformations."--Page 4 of cover.

The book consists of interviews with leading climate scientists. Experts on different aspects of the topic explain their own field and give their opinion on general questions concerning climate change. The interviews cover both fundamental research (climate modeling, global warming, sea level change, melting of the ice caps, natural hazards) and impact assessment (adaption, mitigation, economic impacts and costs of climate change). The goal is to provide the reader with first-hand information on the current state of climate research.
