The Knowledge, by Lewis Dartnell, is a book that discusses how to rebuild our world from scratch. Summary of the Book This book deliberates on the key knowledge that we require to rebuild civilisation from scratch if the world as we know it now ends. It explains how we can start growing food, manufacture medicines, generate power, or even extract metal out of rocks in order to produce the essentials. The book explores ways in which we can transform our perception of the world, as we have become disconnected from the fundamental processes that support our lives, living in the modern world.
