This is the best book I’ve read about the challenges that face us today and in the years ahead. Covering the impacts of the end of cheap energy (oil), to global warming and new diseases Kunstler writes clearly about what may happen in the future. I’ve read several other books on the topic but they all flinch when it comes down to the reality of the situation we face. It isn’t necessary to agree with all of Kunstler’s thoughts to find the chief value in this book – to question your assumptions about the future.
