Climate Change and National Security

Reviews
"Climate Change and National Security is a must-read for undergraduates, graduate students, and research professionals alike. This book provides a careful guide to how climate change will affect specific countries and geographical regions. Unlike so many works that lose credibility by either exaggerating or downplaying the issue, the authors in this volume present the issues with military efficiency in a manner that can serve as a guide to practical action. If you read just one book on climate change this year, this should be it."—Richard B. Andres, professor of national security strategy, National War College and Energy and Environment Security Policy Chair, Institute for National Strategic Studies, National Defense University



"Climate Change and National Security is an important book for scholars and practitioners. By drawing on the expertise of a wide array of accomplished country and regional experts, the book successfully brings the topic down to earth. The authors' observations are nuanced and get beyond the hype that has suggested climate change will lead to wars and state failure. The book will be essential reading for years to come."—Joshua W. Busby, assistant professor, LBJ School of Public Affairs, University of Texas
