Historical Apoplexy

Epistemic Senicide and the Stroke-Like Loss of Civilizational Memory

Civilizations don't only die. Sometimes they have a stroke, specific regions of prior knowledge go dark while motor function continues. Solutions known are forgotten, then re-presented as new. This is the ten-paper diagnosis: what the disease looks like, how it progresses through apoplectic plagiarism into epistemic senicide, and what an honest civilization would have to remember to recover.

The Policy Compendium of an Abundant Society

The first book makes the case. This one is what to actually do, where, in what order. One-hundred-plus state-and-country adaptations, beginning with at-cost food assurance and culminating in the closed-loop factory that produces every staple a civilization needs, drawn from documented operational precedent.
