ResearchRecenzii
From
the
reviews
of
the
second
edition:
“A complete summary of the most up-to-date information and theories of the history and causes of Quaternary climate change. … In the hands of an experienced researcher, this book offers some excellent and insightful critique of established concepts, theories and methodologies, and explores the issue of correlation versus causation in a number of key areas of palaeoclimatology … . offers a very different perspective and insight into topics that many Quaternary scientists perhaps wrongly assume are no longer controversial.” (Simon Carr, The Holocene, Vol. 24 (7), 2014)
“Scientist/engineer Rapp … has thoroughly revised the first edition of this book … . The volume consists of 11 chapters, 24 pages of references, and a 6-page index. It is profusely illustrated with a combination of color and black-and-white maps and graphs in addition to 11 data tables. … the book contains a wealth of data. … Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and graduate students.” (J. T. Andrews, Choice, Vol. 50 (7), March, 2013)

Notă biografică
Donald
Rapp has
had
a
long
and
varied
science
and
engineering
career
with
48
years
of
experience
after
receiving his
Ph.
D.
from
the
University
of
California
in
January,
1960. He
was
a
professor
for
14
years,
and
achieved
the
rank
of
full
professor
at
age
40.
Over
the
years, he
has developed
a
unique
talent
to
move
into
a
field,
research
it
thoroughly,
and
write
an
incisive,
perceptive
summary
of
the
field.
His
capabilities
are
widely
sought
for
writing
summary
technical
reports
and
technical
proposals.
He has published many scientific papers and five text books: Quantum Mechanics, Statistical Mechanics, Solar Energy, Human Missions to Mars, and Assessing Climate Change. The Mars and Climate books were published by Praxis Publishing, so Praxis/Springer is familiar with my abilities.
His five books are summarized at:

Textul de pe ultima copertă
Existing
books
on
ice
ages
are
mostly
short,
popular,
and
non-technical.
Many
deal
with
the
effects
of
the
last
ice
age
on
flora
and
fauna.
The
small
book
by
the
Imbries
is
mostly
historical
and
reflects
their
undying
belief
in
the
astronomical
theory.
The
only
book
that
attempts
to
deal
with
the
broad
issues
of
what
we
know
about
past
ice
ages
and
why
they
occur
is
the
book
by
Muller
and
MacDonald
(M&M),
published
by
Praxis.
However,
despite
its
many
good
features,
this
book
suffers
from
an
inordinate
emphasis
on
spectral
analysis,
a
lack
of
coverage
of
new
data,
and
a
very
confusing
sequence
of
chapters.
As
a
result,
the
data
and
theory
are
so
intimately
entwined
that
it
is
difficult
to
separate
one
from
the
other.
This book will provide an independent and hopefully complete summary of the latest data, independent of theory or analysis. This will be far more extensive than that given by M&M. Only then, after presenting the data, will theories be explored and comparisons made with the data.
This book will become the premier reference and sourcebook on ice ages.
It will also connect up to more recent times regarding climate change.
