Hardcover Book: After Cooling by Eric Dean Wilson (2021)

Hardcover copy of After Cooling: On Fr$on, Global Warming, and the Terrible Cost of Comfort by author Eric Dean Wilson (2021). Dust cover and book are in excellent shape, crisp and clean. The spine has one crease in it, not severe. This “ambitious [and] delightful” (The New York Times) work of literary nonfiction interweaves the science and history of the powerful refrigerant (and dangerous greenhouse gas) Fre$n with a haunting meditation on how to live meaningfully and morally in a rapidly heating world. In After Cooling, Eric Dean Wilson braids together air-conditioning history, climate science, road trips, and philosophy to tell the story of the birth, life, and afterlife of Fre$n, the refrigerant that ripped a hole larger than the continental United States in the ozone layer.
