2nd EDITION

WHEN TECHNOLOGY FAILS: A Manual for Self-Reliance, Sustainability, and Surviving the Long Emergency

 

There’s never been a better time to “be prepared.” Matthew Stein’s comprehensive primer on sustainable living skills—from food and water to shelter and energy to first-aid and crisis-management skills—prepares the reader to embark on the path toward sustainability. Stein not only explains how to live “green” in seemingly stable times, but to live in the face of potential disasters, lasting days or years, coming in the form of social upheaval, economic meltdown, or environmental catastrophe.

This 493-page manual on self-reliance covers the gamut. Topics covered include: water, food and shelter; first aid, low-tech medicine, and healing; energy, heat, and power; metalworking; utensils and storage; low-tech chemistry; and engineering, machines, and materials, and much more.

Fully revised and expanded—the first edition was written pre-9/11 and pre-Katrina, when few Americans took the risk of social disruption seriously—When Technology Fails ends on a positive, proactive note with a new chapter on "Making the Shift to Sustainability" which offers practical suggestions for changing our world on personal, community and global levels.
