In Does the Weather Really Matter? William Burroughs, a former scientific
adviser to the British government, is admirably lucid on how changes in the
weather have rocked past civilisations, but turgid and obtuse about how to
respond to the prospect of climate change of our own making. Too long in
Whitehall? Published by Cambridge University Press, £16.95, ISBN
0521561264.
