Reviews
This chronicle of mutual aid is politically perceptive, scientifically sound, and extraordinarily hopeful even amidst the smoke. Forget the Silicon Valley bros - these are the California techsters we need rebuilding our world, one solar panel and prefab insulated wall at a time. * Bill McKibben *
This book looks like our future and feels like our present - it's an unforgettable vision of what could be. Even a partly good future will require wicked political battles and steadfast solidarity among those fighting for a better world, and here I lived it along with Brooks, Ana Lucia, Phuong, and their comrades in the struggle. Along with the rush of adrenaline I felt a solid surge of hope. May it go like this. -- Kim Stanley Robinson
