Kudos for Climate Smart & Energy Wise

NCSE's Mark McCaffrey's Climate Smart & Energy Wise: Advancing Science Literacy, Knowledge, and Know-How (Corwin Press, 2014) received a positive review from the National Science Teachers Association's NSTA Recommends.

Citing the fact that "[t]he United States has a serious science literacy problem as witnessed by the statements made by local, state, and federal officials about global warming and other topics," the reviewer concluded, "This should be a valuable reference for those involved in science education."

A sample (chapter 7: "Countering Skepticism, Denial, and Despair") is available (PDF) on NCSE's website, and McCaffrey contributed a series of blog posts describing the chapters of the book to NCSE's blog.
