Book Review of Alas, Babylon

Alas, Babylon

Helpful Score: 2


This book seriously changed the way I think about resources and sustainability. I read this in 11th grade. Though the threat of Russia bombing us into the dark ages is in our past, it is still good to think, "How would I do this off the grid?" I found this book (which was not on my reading list) much more thought provoking than A Brave New World. I think teachers should consider using it in classrooms.
