Not unusual, All of max reese rantings are on the skeptic side, Look at his other books.

bugsy .. "What was that again about confirmation bias?" ..

that everyone has it?

Here's some confirmation bias a la Matt Ridley... Quote of the Week, no less!

http://www.noconsensus.org/

free speech, and book sales, seem to go together. Why does it have to involve money. Don't we have print media any more. You shouldn't have to pay for confirmation of skeptacism.

579 .. it's nothing to compare to what we have to pay to confirm warmists belief .. even a tax, after all the committees, propagandists, funding for the youth climate crusade getup, WWF greenpeace .. billions spent by governments, in grants and how many studies, all the warmist websites, the warmist media (Fairfax, ABC)

Yet there remains doubt .. and investigative journalists turn up stuff like this, the IPCC seems to be in need of subterfuge, why is that?

surely, the science can stand without trickery?

no?

The trickery is all in the book, Doesn't mean a thing. It will sell books. People need their denialism confirmed. The lead time in climate change is 30 years, what is happening now is the result of 1980. Things are going to get more fierce before any reversal is due.
