Rated The Age of Low Tech: Towards a Technologically Sustainable Civilization 4/10

This book has some valuable contributions, such as avoiding techno-solutionism and pointing out many problems could be adequately (or even better) solved with technology far behind the bleeding edge of innovation. But, even if—unlike me—one can look at the author's de-globalising view as something positive for highly developed societies, the book certainly fails to tackle how many of its proposed solutions could contribute to amplifying global inequalities and oppression beyond the Global North.
