他的《拆船工》(Shipbreaker)系列也相当不错。其他作者的作品:《手工制造的世界》(The world made by hand),https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1689657.World_Made_by_Ha... 《永恒之路》(Eternity Road),https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/128533.Eternity_Road

如果想从更具批判性且非常深刻(虽然略带复仇意味)的角度审视石油峰值及其深远影响,可以看看詹姆斯·昆斯特勒(James Kunstler)写的《漫长的危机》(The Long Emergency)和《手工制造的世界》(A World Made by Hand)。他那本写郊区衰败的书《无处之地》(The Geography of Nowhere)也非常引人入胜。http://kunstler.com/
For a more critical and very thoughtful (if somewhat vengeful) look at peak oil and what it implies, see The Long Emergency and A World Made by Hand, both by James Kunstler. His book on suburban blight, The Geography of Nowhere, is also fascinating. http://kunstler.com/
另一方面(OTOH),人们也可以去垃圾填埋场挖掘现成的制造品,参见《手工制造的世界》。说到循环史观,我也挺喜欢《The Peddler's Apprentice》。
OTOH, people could mine already-manufactured stuff from landfills; see World Made by Hand. Speaking of cyclic history, I also liked "The Peddler's Apprentice".
哇,感觉我今天像是一头撞进了詹姆斯·昆斯特勒的网站:http://www.kunstler.com/index.php 在我看来,我们其实只有两个选择:核(聚变)能,或者“手工制造的世界”。太阳能的能量密度没那么高。(除非你能造出戴森球或者“环形世界”,把海量的太阳辐射转化为运输动力)每公斤甲烷的能量比石油还多,……
Wow, it feels like I stumbled on James Kunstler's site today: http://www.kunstler.com/index.php The way I see it, we really only have two choices: nuclear (fusion) power; or "A World Made by Hand". Solar doesn't provide much energy density. (unless you can build a Dyson sphere or a "Ringworld" and convert huge amounts of solar radiation for transport) Methane has more energy per KG than oil,…
有人读过昆斯特勒的《手工制造的世界》吗?他早在 2008 年石油峰值恐慌期间就探讨过这种状况了。这不是一本让人心情愉快的书。
Anyone ever read "A World Made by Hand" by Kunstler? He looked at this kind of thing back during the peak oil scare in 2008. It's not a happy book.
如果你想了解世界上石油耗尽后的生活大概是什么样,昆斯特勒的《手工制造的世界》是个现成的例子。它更偏向那种“不是轰轰烈烈毁灭,而是无声无息衰竭”的后末日小说。情况很糟糕,……
There's always "A World Made By Hand" by Kunstler if you want a picture of what life might be like after the world runs out of oil. It's more of the "dying not with a bang, but with a whimper" variety of post-apocalyptic book. It's bad,…
