Summary:
"The Long Descent follows our present industrial society down the
same well-worn path that has led other civilizations into decline.
John Michael Greer explains that this path involves a much slower and
more complex transformation than the sudden catastrophes imagined by
so many social critics today. The cultural stories we use to
understand the world have, in turn, created our present environmental
crisis and influence our future.
Global challenges such as climate change and peak oil are not
problems to be solved but predicaments that must be lived
with."--BOOK JACKET.
