When Technology Fails |
A Manual for Self-Reliance and Planetary Survival:
When Technology Fails is the first to offer, under one cover, basic instructions and recommended resources for the wide range of skills and technologies necessary for self-reliant living and achieving mastery of all kinds of emergency conditions.
A user-friendly "bible" in the tradition of the Whole Earth Catalog, this book provides information that will help the average person become more self-reliant. In an era of super- storms, burgeoning population, massive earth- quakes, global warming, and record-breaking floods and droughts, more and more people are seeking to prepare themselves to deal with the difficult times that may lie ahead.
When Technology Fails addresses this univer- sal concern in one engaging and concise volume for the general reader. A directory of resources and an instructional guide to sustainable tech- nologies, it outlines survival strategies for deal- ing with changes that affect food, water, shelter, energy, health, communications, and essential goods and services.
When Technology Fails provides something for everyone, from parents who want to help their families when a disaster strikes, to the go- it-alone survivalist, to the eco-minded person who wishes to tread more lightly on the earth— whatever the future may hold.
