This page provides live links for webpages cited in Hell and High Water, as explained below. I am profoundly grateful to my copy editor at Birlinn, Nancy E.M. Bailey, for having helped to compile and check them for me. To return to the main Hell & High Water page click "Up" (above left). At the foot of the page is an erratum. It is inevitable that a book of this range and complexity will contain some technical errors (as distinct from mere outdatedness). I would be much obliged if readers would care to notify me of factual matters that might require correction and I will promptly post corrections. As of December 2008 I have also included (below) a particularly useful update on the climate change science. Click here for my email contact details.
Websites referenced in Hell and High Water: Climate Change, Hope and the Human Condition, by Alastair McIntosh, June 2008, Birlinn, Edinburgh Live Links for Chapter: Introduction 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Afterword Why I have provided web references in this way: In writing this book, many of my sources were from the web as befits up-to-date scientific material. On p.251 I therefore prefaced the endnotes with a comment to the effect that rather than print long strings of URLs that are unsightly and highly prone to transcription errors, I would provide this page of endnote extensions where readers can click the URLs directly and thereby get straight to my sources. I hope this will make things easy for people. The links given here were all valid when the book went to press in March 2008 and were checked for site presence (but not for content) again on 6 June 2008. Unfortunately, I cannot undertake to run an updating service. The science in my book will inevitably go out of date, but the implications of it, which is the book's main thrust, is likely to endure. Where websites migrate it should often be possible to relocate the material by Googling the source that I have given in the book. Where available, the source material that I have provided states the webpage author(s), article and (where appropriate) journal title, and the date of original posting. The time of my having accessed the site may be presumed as March 2008 unless otherwise stated. Where the word, "Text", appears below, this means the reference is to a conventional hard copy source that is given in the endnotes in the book, and therefore usually not given as a web link. Do note that many of the books cited in my endnotes simply as "Text" can actually be checked online for research purposes at http://books.google.com/, www.amazon.co.uk or www.amazon.com . I find that often Amazon has items in a searchable format on its .com site that are not searchable (or only present as "look inside") on other sites. Several of my own books can be consulted via Amazon and it's worth saying that while I cannot over-ride publishers' legal rights, I am personally always very happy for people to copy any of my material for non-profit purposes. Where journal articles have to be paid for I have made the assumption that many of my readers will not have Athens access, and so I have provided links to free abstracts or press release pages, from which the full article can be sourced if required.

I note that Owen invents the term "hubris syndrome", but actually, there is a perfectly good existing clinical term for all that he describes - narcissistic personality disorder. One wonders why Owen invented a new term, and whether it might be to avoid using an existing clinical definition that, being pre-defined, could have caused him problems in its application to Blair and Bush. For an excellent therapeutic perspective on personality disorders see Character Styles by Stephen M. Johnson, W.W. Norton & Co., USA, 1994.
