He wasn't a denialist. In the afterword he explicitly said he believed in a warming climate, and that the climate would warm by 0.8-ish degrees (somewhat tongue-in-cheek, referencing all the confidence that is espoused by the research). What he objected to was CO2 as the driving force -- his research led him to believe that the urban heat island effect had more impact.
