About the book
Climate scientist Michael E. Mann and political cartoonist Tom Toles take aim at climate change denial, which both have confronted for most of their careers. Having watched business and political interests manipulate the media and play to partisanship, they show the contortions of logic denialists need to dismiss the clear evidence that people have altered Earth's climate. Toles's cartoons break counter-scientific strategies into their biased parts so the fallacies are easier to see, while Mann uses his skill as a science communicator in a debate that still rages against broad scientific consensus. Toles has won a Pulitzer Prize.
Leonardo DiCaprio endorsed it for dissecting the climate denial industry, and 350.org founder Bill McKibben praised the pair's mix of information, indignation and humor.

Leonardo DiCaprio (Oscar Winning Actor)
For centuries, powerful forces of greed have tried to hide the truth, but that doesn't change reality--the earth is round and climate change is very real. The Madhouse Effect brilliantly dissects the climate denial industry, empowering all of us to see the facts and take action before it's too late.
Bill McKibben (Founder/350.org)
Michael E. Mann is one of the planet's great climate scientists, and Tom Toles may be the great climate communicator--together, they are a category 5 storm of information and indignation, wreaking humorous havoc on those who would deny the greatest challenge humans have ever faced.
