A Question of Balance: Economic Modeling of Global Warming
William D. Nordhaus 2008 Yale University Press
In this book William Nordhaus integrates a spectrum of economic and scientific research to weigh the costs of reducing emissions against the benefits of reducing the long-run damages from global warming. This resource offers an extensive analysis of the economic and environmental dynamics of greenhouse-gas emissions and climate change and provides tools to evaluate alternative approaches to slowing global warming.
