I stumbled across the book and was surprised to see a peer-reviewed book with this opinion. Seems it is retracted now, although without any clear comment on the page.

Does anybody know more how this happened?

None of the chapter pdfs actually contain any content, which is pretty close to what I expected from a book collecting all the evidence that CO_2 has absolutely no impact on climate.

This is the strange thing about this book. There was content before: https://de.scribd.com/document/420577417/Fleming-RJ-2019-The...

I don't know how this was published and can be taken down without any comments by the editor. Springer Book is one of the main scientific books publishers on the market.

At https://www.amazon.com/Carbon-Dioxide-Theory-Climate-Change/... the author is quoted with some conspiracy theories about the German government intervening with Springer, because the German government is obviously afraid of yet another populist pseudoscience tome being published.

Most of the reviews are obvious fakes written by people named "John" and "Mike" who have exactly one review.
