8/30/17 review of book Dark Age Ahead, by Jane Jacobs


Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the book Dark Age Ahead, by Jane Jacobs.

The thread gives a summary of the book and some context on Jane Jacobs and how I learned of Jane Jacobs and this book. The thread discusses themes examined by the book, such as cultural amnesia, technical/social competence, societal stagnation, society's prioritization of profit, overly trusting credentials, how to combat stagnation, the effects of the US War on Terror, and possible housing bubbles.

Here is the link to the Penguin Random House web page for the book.
