The Global Deal

Climate Change and the Creation of a New Era of Progress and Prosperity

By: Nicholas Stern

Narrated by: James Adams

Nicholas Stern, former chief economist of the World Bank, was asked by the British government to direct the largest study ever conducted into the reality of global warming and the possible ways of remedying it.

The result, the Stern Report, made headlines around the world and is far and away the deepest and most far-reaching exploration of the crisis and - in particular - of solutions to it.

There have been many worthy books elucidating the problem of global warming. This, now, is the first great book to grapple profoundly with costing and affecting the solution, from one of the greatest economists and public intellectuals of our day.

Great information a little dated

Sterns work is complex and understandable. I understand much more about the economics of climate change and the response of lack of response than I did before listening to this work. While still valuable, i would like to listen to a revised edition because of the significant changes in the world since publication. Overall well worth the time
