'McLeman eschews the hyperbole and screaming headlines that often surround this topic to unpack the complex and still evolving connections between climate change and migration. His analysis is both broad and deep in its reach and avoids the pitfalls that commonly plague the climate change and migration literature.' Geoffrey Dabelko, Ohio University<br />'This book is excellent. In Climate and Human Migration, Dr McLeman offers accessible explanations of this tremendously complex association - convoluted processes become understandable. In this way, the book will be valuable in the university classroom. Dr McLeman also offers a thorough summary of varied literature scattered across multiple scientific disciplines. In this way, the book will be valuable to both social and natural scientists. And finally, with his logical and level-headed approach to a topic that is sometimes presented in controversial and exaggerated terms, this book will be useful to practitioners and policymakers. Highly recommended.' Lori Mae Hunter, University of Colorado, Boulder, and Editor-in-Chief of Population and Environment<br />'We've needed this book for some time now. While the 'flood of climate refugees' idea (scare?) can have a certain appeal, and its 'connect the dots' logic a certain policy utility, Robert McLeman's exceptionally well researched and readable book reveals we are way off the mark in thinking that the migration repercussions of climate change will be so simplistic. Climate and Human Migration will be very valuable for research and teaching about the human dimensions of climate change. But perhaps those who need to read it most are the policy-makers in various countries who are pondering (and in some cases already formulating) perilous and dangerous policies based on the simple, unelaborated view of how migration and climate change interact.'
