《不願面對的真相》記錄了美國前副總統高爾在世界各地的全球暖化巡迴演講，他用最簡單、最容易理解的概念，讓人了解「全球暖化現象」及其後果，也展現出他風趣幽默及認真嚴肅的一面。他以輕鬆自然及實事求是的態度，竭盡所能地說明地球正面臨一場「全球性的緊急狀況」，而我們在事情尚未惡化到無法挽救的地步之前，必須儘快採取行動阻止浩劫發生。本書並未論及許多溫室效應和全球暖化問題的細節，僅止於基礎介紹。我們的氣候危機看似發生得很緩慢，但實際上進展得非常快速，並確實成為地球的緊急事件。忽視問題比解決它來得簡單，這些他們不願面對的真相並不會就此消失不見，當它們開始對人類進行反撲的時候，其重要性才真正顯現。

An Inconvenient Truth, Gore’s groundbreaking battle cry of a follow-up to the bestselling Earth in the Balance, will be published to tie in with a documentary film of the same name that will be seen in theaters across the country in May. Both the book and film were inspired by a series of multimedia presentations on global warming that Gore created and delivers to groups around the world. With this book, Gore, who is one of our environmental heroes -- and a leading expert -- brings together leading-edge research from top scientists around the world; photographs, charts, and other illustrations; and personal anecdotes and observations to document the fast pace and wide scope of global warming. He presents, with alarming clarity and conclusiveness -- and with humor, too -- that the fact of global warming is not in question and that its consequences for the world we live in will be disastrous if left unchecked. This riveting new book, written in an accessible, entertaining style, will open the eyes of even the most skeptical
