Unlock the Secrets of Modern Civilization
From one of the world’s leading experts on the history of energy, a rigorous examination of the transitions that structure our modern world–and the environmental reckoning that will mark its success or failure.
The Four Grand Transitions
The modern world is shaped by four ‘grand transitions’ of civilization: populations, agriculture, energy, and economics. These transitions have transformed the way we live, but they also pose significant challenges for the environment.
A New Era of Sustainability
Managing the fifth transition—environmental changes from natural-resource depletion, biodiversity loss, and global warming—will determine the success or eventual failure of the grand transitions that have made the world we live in today.
