James Howard Kunstler, author of
The Long Emergency, among other works,
will speak on Tuesday the 22nd, thanks to the
Deerfield View. In his 2005 book, Kunstler argued that declining oil production will cause the end of industrialized society as we know it and force Americans to live in smaller-scale, localized, agrarian communities.
“As brilliant as it is baleful . . . and we disregard it at our peril,”
The Washington Post said of
The Long Emergency.
“What setsÂ
The Long Emergency apart…is its comprehensive sweep—its powerful integration of science, technology, economics, finance, international politics and social change, along with a fascinating attempt to peer into a chaotic future. Kunstler is such a compelling and sometimes eloquent writer that the book is hard to put down,” saidÂ
American Scientist.
