When it comes to climate change, the media, politicians, and other prominent voices have declared that "the science is settled." In reality, the long game of telephone from research to reports to the popular media is corrupted by misunderstanding and misinformation. Core questions - about the way the climate is responding to our influence, and what the impacts will be - remain largely unanswered. The climate is changing, but the why and how aren't as clear as you've probably been led to believe.

With the new edition of Unsettled, Steven Koonin draws on decades of experience—including as a top science advisor to the Obama administration—to clear away the fog and explain what science really says (and doesn’t say). With a new introduction, this edition now features reflections on an additional three years of eye-opening data, alternatives to unrealistic “net zero” solutions, global energy inequalities, and the energy crisis arising from the war in Ukraine.

Nel 2022 ha scritto un libro in lingua inglese (The Capital Order), inserito dal «Financial Times» tra le dieci pubblicazioni più influenti dell'anno a tema economico.

In secca, dai corsi stentati, o gonfi di acque irruente e trascinanti: abbiamo cominciato (finalmente!) a preoccuparci dei cambiamenti climatici e della salute dei nostri fiumi, perché ci stiamo accorgendo che una risorsa che consideravamo scontata - rinnovabile - tanto scontata e inesauribile non è. Da tempo il nostro rapporto con i fiumi è di tipo parassitario: li usiamo e ne abusiamo, ne stravolgiamo la rete e la biodiversità, e poi ce ne dimentichiamo.

This volume offers concrete strategies for renewal that would also reinvigorate the project of European integration, with fresh ideas in the areas of both macroeconomics and microeconomics, including central banking, public investment, corporate governance and competition policy, social policy, and international trade.
