Hello everyone.

I'm interested in books about life without fossil fuels, specifically modern life after fossil fuels.

I know of Life after Fossil Fuels by Alice Friedemann, and the work of Steve Hallett, but I'm struggling to find more books on the topic.

Maybe I'm just bad at searching, frankly... If you know how to best search for books on particular, somewhat specific topics, please also let me know!

Anyway, if you know of books on the topic, please recommend them! I want to learn more about this.

I was really looking for non-fiction, realistic ideas.

How realistic is One Second After? Is it actually based in science?

Regardless, it could be a fun read :D Thanks!

Ah, my bad. It's fairly realistic, but it's definitely fiction, so isn't as useful for preparation/learning.

It deals with the breakdown of society and how dependent we are on technology.
