How to Invent Everything: A Survival Guide for the Stranded Time Traveler

Really fun read. I love the imaginative scenarios the book places you in.

This should be in every prepper's library. Well written and laid out.

In simple , albeit not very detailed way , this book tells you how to recreate all the technology that we humans have had since our existence : fire , clay , metal work , fuel ,transportation , flight , medicine , music , art , computers . Easy , small , fun chapters with useful footnotes . A gem .

The bulk of this book is an actual survival guide with things to reinvent and different formulae, but it you are not looking for cold hard facts like me you won't like this. This isn't a book you read for the story (although it is super funny).

This is my favorite book, it appeals to my sense of humor perfectly and gives me plenty of fun facts to relay to my friends.

Im about halfway through the book, and Im enjoying it a ton. Its very humorous and light-hearted, so reading it is pretty entertaining. The parts of history classes I always loved was getting to hear all of the stupid errors humans have made in our past (I never cared to hear about culture tbh), and this book covers that well.If you want to learn a lot of new things, then this is the book to get. Do keep in mind that if you do not have an engineering mind, then this book might not do you much good. To go through EVERY inventions building block components takes a heavy amount of knowledge surrounding the basics.

Great as a bathroom book, or for time traveling. Makes you think of human history and how far we've come.

Book came bent and the paper is the cheapest of stock very very thin & easily damaged
