Outage: What would happen if the power went down...permanently?

by John Manuel

If all the electricity in the world were to suddenly stop working, how soon would society degenerate into anarchy? What would happen to the world's 400 nuclear power plants, for example? How dependent has humanity become on electricity in order for society to function? These and many other issues are addressed in this dark, apocalyptic vision deftly described the author.

About the author

John Manuel and his half-Greek wife moved from the UK to Rhodes in 2005. Since then he has written five factual books about his visits to Greece over a period of four decades, plus his years of living on Rhodes. He has also written eight novels. John and his wife are keen recyclers, walkers and readers. They are both passionate about gardening, and the natural world too.
John Manuel kept a blog about life on Rhodes called 'Ramblings From Rhodes', and it has thousands of regular followers all over the world. Since moving to Crete in 2019, he's started a new blog called 'Accretions.'
He also runs a Facebook page called 'A Good Greek Read', which he founded in 2015, and which has since expanded to a membership of thousands, also from all around the globe. The purpose of the group is to provide a 'virtual library' for anyone seeking their next read with a decidedly Greek theme.
The couple now live in a tiny village in the hills above Ierapetra, Lasithi, Crete, which is the southernmost town in the entire continent Europe.
