I've been reading Lewis Dartnell's "The Knowledge: How to Rebuild our World from Scratch", and it is exactly what you want. A insightful collection of recipes to bootstrap civilization after a global disaster.

I hope I don't get to use it ever, but it is really interesting as it necessarily explains the fundamentals of our current civilization.
- mynegation 11y agoYes, I absolutely love this book! It is pretty high-level though which is better than nothing and necessary to condense a lot of knowledge into a small-ish book, but less desirable than more technical book with drawings, schematics, precise chemical recipes etc. Books like that must be created for the same reason insurances exist: you hope you never use it, but when and if (and over long horizons it is more a question of "when") disaster strikes, they are indispensable.
