Low-tech Magazine underscores the potential of past and often forgotten technologies and how they can inform sustainable energy practices. Sometimes, past technologies can be copied without any changes. More often, interesting possibilities arise when older technology is combined with new knowledge and new materials, or when past concepts and traditional knowledge are applied to modern technology. Inspiration is also to be found in the so-called "developing" world, where resource constraints often lead to inventive, low-tech solutions. This volume (688 pages, no images) collects almost 3,000 comments on roughly 100 articles published between 2008 and 2021. The book uses a small font. The articles can be found in three other books: Low-tech Magazine Volume I (2007-2012), Low-tech Magazine Volume II (2012-2018), Low-tech Magazine Volume III (2018-2021).
