This nonfiction book describes how scientists measure changes to our climate, from ice cores to satellites, and some of their major findings.
The text is clear and understandable without being simplified or dumbed down. The photographs and occasional graphs used throughout support and enhance the text.
My one objection is that, although it mentions various scientists, they are not the book's focus. With the title of "Climate Scientists" I would have appreciated sidebars with spotlights on individual climate scientists and/or a concluding chapter with advice on becoming a climate scientist.
