    No. I searched Amazon for that book and it didn't return any results.

    One of the better books I read was "Climate Confusion: ..." by Roy W. Spencer. Most of the books on climate change I read several years ago and their title escapes my memory. If this is the one I think I is, it is particularly good. If I remember any more titles I will let you know.

    Toxicologist for hire...

    Umm - IMHO i think FEM2008 is pulling your leg a bit (but I might be wrong):

    Kehoe was a leading (ahem) toxicologist in occupational hazards during the twenties,
    and ran a toxicology research lab, UC Kettering Laboratory of Applied Physiology from 1930.

    The lab was funded by GM, DuPont and Ethyl Corporation (Uh-Oh...) and set itself to find out any eventual causes for
    the reported health issues in workers engaged in production of anti-knocking additive TetraEthylLead (TEL).

    Already being a fervent denier of lead toxicity, his work coincidentally funded by the producers and users of the TEL stuff,
    he not merely concluded there were no risks whatsoever involved (but rather that lead metabolizes in our bodies...),
    but also dumping the job of proving any and all ill effects on his opponents (The Kehoe Rule).

    Though not a book - his Wiki might be worth a read:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_A._Kehoe#The_Surgeon_General's_review_of_gasoline_lead_and_the_Kehoe _Rule

    2 cents
    Johan (taking MY liberty of being fully subjective, too...)

    -Having a hard time buying any statements from climate change (or any other) scientists?
    No big deal - then just claim that the Wrath of God will send abt 2 billion sea coast refugees inland within a century.
    Feel better now?


    Also: Here's a denial from the very people a US House Member claimed have caused the California Forest fires a few years ago:
