Susanna Wadeson at Transworld Publishers is thrilled to have pre-empted from Peter Cox at Redhammer Management Ltd world rights (excl North America) in The Global Warming Survival Kit by Brian Clegg for a very substantial advance.

A brilliant response to the growing clamour in the media about global warming, and unique in it’s approach, Brian Clegg’s Global Warming Survival Kit accepts climate change is upon us and - taking a hard scientific look at the likely scenarios - gives clearheaded advice to the individual about how to prepare for the worst it can throw at us.

Susanna Wadeson, Publishing Director at Transworld Publishers, says “In just the past couple of months a tornado has hit homes in London, the North-West has had dramatic flooding, much of the Midlands has lost power for 24 hours or more while the North Sea is eroding the Eastern coastline before our eyes. It is early February today and it is warmer than 12degrees C in Scotland. Who knows what the summer will bring. None of us will want to be without Brian’s book and I’m thrilled that we’ll be publishing it this year! ”

The Global Warming Survival Kit will be published in trade paperback by Doubleday in Autumn 2007.
