FALL
2016

A Wealth of Ideas
Fall comes to us as the beginning of the wind-down season. The last of
the garden’s harvest is being brought in, gardens put to bed for the winter, kids
are gearing up for a new year at school. For those of us whose summers are
so busy — and whose isn’t! — the prospect of winter’s slow-down, with long
evenings spent dreaming of next year’s possibilities, is a welcome one.
We’ve worked to bring you a fall publishing season full of planning books,
thoughtful books, and above all, practical books to put the right tools into your
hands to help build a better, more vibrant world.
A wealth of tools, ideas, and solutions are presented in this season’s strong
collection of transition, permaculture, gardening, and farming books. From
mixing farming and entrepreneurship for strong, healthy farm businesses
(The Farmer’s Office), to integrating permaculture into your market garden
(The Permaculture Market Garden), along the way you’ll find options for
year-round sustainable growing (The Year-Round Solar Greenhouse), renewable
energy and sustainable building (Power from the Sun – 2nd edition, Cordwood
Building – revised edition, and a new entry into our Sustainable Building
Essentials series, Essential Building Science).
John Michael Greer’s Dark Age America looks at the decline and collapse
of North American civilization, offering ideas for what we can do now to
leave a more manageable world for our decendants. And Ross Mars adds to
that toolbox with The Permaculture Transition Manual, bringing permaculture
and transition work together.
Parents and grandparents will appreciate Spit That Out! and Grow Create
Inspire — Paige Wolf offers tools and tips to navigate today’s toxic world, and
author Crystal Stevens brings inspiring lessons and ideas for creating a life of
beauty and abundance. For all of us, Dmitry Orlov’s Shrinking the Technosphere
examines the rise of technology and how we can make wise choices to ensure
it serves us, rather than the reverse.
There’s definitely something for every bookshelf, here — our very best
to you through the cooler, quieter seasons.

Dark Age America
Climate Change, Cultural Collapse, and the Hard Future Ahead
John Michael Greer
After decades of missed opportunities, the door to a sustainable future
has closed, and the future we face now is one in which today’s industrial civilization
unravels in the face of uncontrolled climate change and resource depletion. Dark Age
America seeks to map out in advance the history of collapse, giving us an idea of what
the next 500 years or so might look like as globalization ends and North American
civilization enters the stages of decline and fall.
Knowing where we’re headed collectively is a crucial step in responding constructively
and doing what we can now to help our descendants make the most of the world we’re
leaving them.
John Michael Greer is one of the most influential authors exploring the future
of industrial society. He has published more than thirty books including The Long
Descent (p. 25) and After Progress (p. 20). He lives in Cumberland, MD with his wife Sara.

Shrinking the Technosphere
Getting a Grip on the Technologies that Limit our Autonomy,
Self-sufficiency and Freedom
Dmitry Orlov
Over the past two centuries we have witnessed a wholesale replacement of
most of the previous methods of conducting both business and daily life with new,
technologically advanced, more efficient methods: if the new ways of doing things
are so much better, then we must all be leading relaxed, stress-free, enjoyable lives
with plenty of free time to devote to art and leisure activities. But a more careful
look at these changes shows us that many of these advances are not weighing
favourably in a harm/benefit comparison.
Shrinking the Technosphere guides readers through the process of bringing technology
down to a manageable number of carefully chosen and controllable elements. This
is critical reading for all who seek to get back to a point where technologies assist us
rather than control us.
Dmitry Orlov was born in Leningrad, USSR and emigrated to the US in the mid-1970s. He holds degrees
in Computer Engineering and Linguistics, and has worked in a variety of fields, including high-energy physics,
Internet commerce, network security, and advertising. He is the author of several previous books, including
Reinventing Collapse and The Five Stages of Collapse (p. 20).

I’m Right and You’re an Idiot
The Toxic State of Public Discourse and How to Clean it Up

The most pressing environmental problem we face today is not climate change.
It is pollution in the public square, where a smog of adversarial rhetoric, propaganda, and
polarization stifles discussion and debate, creating resistance to change and thwarting our
ability to solve our collective problems.
In I’m Right and You’re an Idiot, author James Hoggan grapples with this critical issue,
conducting interviews with outstanding thinkers from the Himalaya to the House of
Lords, drawing on the wisdom of such notables as Thich Nhat Hanh, Noam Chomsky,
and the Dalai Lama.
Focusing on proven techniques to foster more powerful and effective communication, I’m
Right and You’re an Idiot will appeal to readers looking for both deep insights and practical advice.

How Cell Phones, Computers, Gaming, and Social Media are
Changing our Brains, our Behavior, and the Evolution of our Species
Mari K. Swingle
Many of us would no more go out without our cell phone than we would leave the

digital revolution. But what about the cost?

psychology, and observations from over 18 years of clinical practice and research, Dr.
Mari Swingle explores the pervasive influence of i-technology. Engaging and entertaining
yet scientifically rigorous, i-Minds is an indispensable look at a revolution where the only
constant is change—food for thought about which aspects of technology we should
embrace, what we should reject,
and the many facets of the digital era that we should now be debating.

Reinventing Green Building
Why Certification Systems Aren’t Working and What We Can Do About It
Jerry Yudelson
Buildings and their associated systems are the largest source of greenhouse
gases in the world. The 2030 Challenge aims to produce zero net-energy from new North
American construction by 2030 while achieving a 50% reduction in carbon emissions
from existing buildings. With less than 4% of commercial and residential structures in
the U.S. and Canada certified by 2015, we seem destined to fall catastrophically short of
this target.
Reinventing Green Building combines an insider’s critique of the current state of affairs
with a potent vision for the future, and presents a new approach to certification, designed
to radically cut costs while dramatically increasing marketplace acceptance, integrating
true climate mitigation and better building performance.
Jerry Yudelson, dubbed “The Godfather of Green” by Wired magazine in 2011, has many years of professional
experience in the green building field. He was elected as a LEED® Fellow and has served as the president of the Green

The Rocket Mass Heater Builder’s Guide
Complete Step-by-Step Construction, Maintenance
and Troubleshooting
Erica Wisner and Ernie Wisner
Heating with wood is often considered a natural and economical alternative
to electricity or fossil fuels. However, even with a fairly new and efficient
woodstove, many cords of wood are required for burning over the course of
a single winter, and incomplete combustion can contribute to poor air quality.
A rocket mass heater is an earthen masonry heating system which provides
clean, safe, and efficient warmth for your home, all while using 70-90% less
fuel than a traditional woodstove.
Earthen masonry heating systems are well-suited for natural and conventional
builders alike. A super-efficient, wood-burning, rocket mass heater can help you
dramatically reduce your energy costs while enhancing the beauty, value, and
comfort of your home.
Erica and Ernie Wisner have built over 700 super-efficient, clean-burning rocket stoves and masonry heaters. They
are dedicated to the search for sustainable solutions and the hands-on teaching of creative, ecological, and practical skills.
