520    The author points out that core questions about the way 
       the climate is responding to our influence and what the 
       impacts will be remain largely unanswered.  He provides 
       insights and perspective free from political agendas, 
       dispels popular myths, and unveils little-known truths.  
       He points out that the models we use to predict the future
       aren't able to accurately describe the climate of the past,
       suggesting they are deeply flawed.
