The Institute of Idea's mission is to expand the boundaries of public debate through organising conferences, discussions and salons, and publishing written conversations and exchanges. They hope to play a part in shaking up a culture that seems to shy away more and more from confrontation and the clash of ideas.
The 'Debating Matters' series reflects their commitment to this project. It is hoped that the reader will find the arguments in these pages stimulating, thought-provoking, and a spur to carrying on the debate long after they have closed the book.
Politicians and the media rarely miss the opportunity that hurricanes or extensive flooding provide to warn us of the potential dangers of global warming. This is nature's 'wake-up call' we are told and we must adjust our lifestyles.
This book brings together scientific experts and social commentators to debate whether we really are seeing 'nature's revenge'.
