Inspiration or “blast from above,” when the outline for his book, When Technology Fails: A Manual for Self-Reliance, Sustainability, and Surviving the Long Emergency, was dropped into his head like a nuclear bomb, Matthew Stein set out to write the bible of emergency preparedness and green and healthy living, an encyclopedic tome with a little bit of everything needed to survive a disaster: with information on everything from making your own bow and arrow to disinfecting your water on the run to emergency childbirth, this is the indispensable guide for getting through a catastrophic technological Fail.

In this clip, Mat talks to the folks at The Extreme Society Show about his book and gives a few basic tips to help you survive.
