* Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes. By reading this summary, you will learn how "low-tech" could help create a more sustainable world. You will also learn : that shortages of natural resources are not new; that high-tech is not an answer to resource scarcity; that you have to give up some of your comfort in order for society to be more sustainable; that the concept of low technology combines an ideology with techniques; that there are obstacles to the transition to a sustainable society. The risks of a major climate and social crisis are now undeniable. Consequently, many solutions are emerging in an attempt to curb the possible collapse of civilization. In the scientific world, researchers are betting on technical progress through high technologies. These are supposed to save the planet thanks to intelligent networks, nanotechnologies or renewable energies. However, these technologies consume ever more scarce resources and their complexity makes them difficult to apply on a global scale. Shouldn't a solution be found on the "low tech" side instead? *Buy now the summary of this book for the modest price of a cup of coffee!

People often believe that we can overcome the profound environmental and climate crises we face by smart systems, green innovations and more recycling. However, the quest for complex technological solutions, which rely on increasingly exotic and scarce materials, makes this unlikely. A best-seller in France, this English language edition introduces readers to an alternative perspective on how we should be marshalling our resources to preserve the planet and secure our future. Bihouix skilfully goes against the grain to argue that ‘high’ technology will not solve global problems and envisages a different approach to build a more resilient and sustainable society.

Low-tech Magazine underscores the potential of past and often forgotten technologies and how they can inform sustainable energy practices. Sometimes, past technologies can be copied without any changes. More often, interesting possibilities arise when older technology is combined with new knowledge and new materials, or when past concepts and traditional knowledge are applied to modern technology. Inspiration is also to be found in the so-called “developing” world, where resource constraints often lead to inventive, low-tech solutions.

What are the future demands on architecture, landscape architecture, structural engineering, technical building services and urban planning? What role will professionals in these fields play? How is building evolving in the information age? This book describes the complex challenges of the information age. Part 1 analyzes contemporary trends, future scenarios, solutions from the past and the resources available in nature. Part 2 introduces in theory and practice what sustainable building means in the information age, namely, integrated, high-quality, contextual, resource-conserving and efficient building in which ecological assessment and planning are critical. Finally, Part 3 presents the consequences of these trends and principles on the technical extension and renovation of buildings.
