Muddling Toward Frugality

More about the book

The book presents a compelling argument that we are transitioning into an era of economic scarcity due to excessive industrial expansion and dwindling natural resources. It highlights the rising human demands against the backdrop of limited supplies, which is driving inflation. The author critiques mainstream economics for failing to recognize this reality and emphasizes that technological advancements cannot reverse the decline. Instead of resisting this shift, he advocates for accepting it and making gradual, community-based adaptations to navigate the impending changes.
