About the Book

"Climate change is already having sweeping effects on every continent and throughout the world's oceans, scientists report...and they warned that the problem was likely to grow substantially worse unless greenhouse emissions are brought under control. The report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a United Nations group that periodically summarizes climate science, concluded that ice caps are melting, sea ice in the Arctic is collapsing, water supplies are coming under stress, heat waves and heavy rains are intensifying, coral reefs are dying, and fish and many other creatures are migrating toward the poles or in some cases going extinct. The oceans are rising at a pace that threatens coastal communities and are becoming more acidic as they absorb some of the carbon dioxide given off by cars and power plants, which is killing some creatures or stunting their growth, the report found...etc" - New York Times, March 31st, 2014. A must read about our most pressing global issue: Climate Change: Tipping Points Tipping Points are in many ways, influenced by media. This just released, ground-breaking book by Dr Philip Gordon, Ph.D details the Climate Change issue which is analyzed on the basis of Tipping Point Theory Attributes and Characteristics. Currently, media contagiousness and stickiness are influencing the Climate Change "epidemic" with contrasting and misleading information and soon the "dramatic moment in time" will arrive, where the culmination of man made impacts will be irreversible, which are characterized by the phenomenon known as: the Tipping Point. As the issue of Climate Change is still evolving, Dr Gordon provides a methodology and parameters for analyzing and predicting our planets' most pressing global issue. The challenge is to harness and focus our global media agendas and priorities before it's too late. Dr Philip Gordon, Ph.D was awarded his doctorate (with honors) from the Centre d'Etudes Diplomatiques et Strategegues (CEDS) Paris, France and graduated with his masters while on a full-fellowship from Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland. He currently lives in Burgundy, France with his wife and two sons. Peer Review Comments: "The genius of the formulation of Climate Change Tipping Point Theory is that it takes explicit account of the role of social media and the internet at facilitating bifurcations and promoting dynamical instability. In effect, we have trimmed a few feet of tail off the kite. As a reader, I was informed and educated as to the factors which conspire to influence stability / instability in complex social systems...the book does a good job of making sense of past bifurcations and dynamical instabilities, namely political instability, our perception of global climate change...my compliments on a truly insightful book." - Prof. Dr.(med.) Peter S. Geissler, A.B., B.S., M.S., M.Phil., Ph.D. (Yale) M.A., M.Eng., M.S., Ph.D., M.S., M.D., M.Phil.(Cantab) "...a mass undertaking (very motivated) of how (we) as a society can become aware of future global events. Excellent!" - Dr. Derek El Zein, PhD Professor, Avocat, Expert: Communications " ...a very insightful approach to the theory and our future possibilities. I am passing it along to my colleagues, thanks for sharing this with me." - Dr. Ralph Morehouse, PhD "The application of the tipping point theory qualitative ratio analysis to media and global events, is a fascinating one." - Dr. Serge Besanger, PhD Expert, International Monetary Fund "...very interesting application (of the Tipping Point Theory)...potential opportunity for predicting other global events." - Dr. Adam Ajlani, PhD Professor, Sciences Politic and Political Consultant, France TV1 "...very innovative approach to modeling very complex studies for comparison. Well-suited for similar types of analysis." - Dr. Emmanuel Caulier, PhD Professor and Expert: International Political Relations, Avocat
