Peak Oil - A User's Guide
A book of two parts exploring the messier aspects of Peak Oil in an attempt to get
beyond the simplistic utopias and hells of much contemporary analysis.
Part one of 'Peak Oil: A User's Guide' incorporates a survival manual and documentation from 'The Peak Oil Olympics', an event that took place in July 2006 in Bristol UK which enacted a rapid collapse scenario, using fun and collective survivalist games. Part two includes a beginners' guide to the geology and implications of Peak Oil, with texts analysing Peak Oil from a more critical angle. Essays by George Caffentzis and Iain Boal provide a systematic analysis of what Peak Oil might mean, exploring the histories of scarcity, energy and power within capitalism.
