Reseña del editor

Metis provides a stirring perspective on the conflict between the US and China. It exposes how global warming is fueling China's clandestine stratagem for world supremacy. Unchecked, irreversible and relatively unobservable, global warming has provided China with the ultimate weapon to master The Art of War.Metis is packed with political intrigue, personal agendas, historical perspective, and frightful forecasts of the impending devastation that global warming, climate change and topography transformation may bring upon an unsuspecting and unprepared world."Taking stock of what scientists know of the interactions between the Earth's atmosphere, oceans, and land surface, Harvey Goldman and William Morris explore a chilling scenario of global environmental geo-politics. Perry, a rising, mid-career executive at the super-tech firm, Metis, finds himself caught between passionate environmentalism, loyal patriotism, and a harsh vision of the future as engineered by intelligence and defense professionals. The book is an essential read for all those who follow the current debate on global warming and our future."-William H. Schlesinger, James B. Duke Professor of Biogeochemistry, Dean, Nicholas School of the Environment and Earth Sciences
