*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
5 Ways the World Could End is a gripping, science-grounded tour of the five biggest civilization-scale threats—and how ordinary people could survive the unthinkable. Instead of wallowing in doom, this book shows you what would actually happen during and after a catastrophe, step by step, and how communities can rebuild when the sky finally clears.
From the flash and fallout of nuclear war , to the slow violence of climate collapse , the ash-dark winters of a supervolcano , the shockwaves and tsunamis of an asteroid or comet impact , and the invisible spread of a global pandemic , each chapter follows a clear, practical arc:
how it could realistically happen
the immediate impact on cities, food, water, power, and health
regional differences (who suffers first, who has a chance)
life in the months and years after
the long-term future—and what it would take to win it
Written in vivid, accessible language and grounded in real physics, public-health practice, and disaster logistics, 5 Ways the World Could End turns abstract risks into scenes you can picture and plans you can use. It's perfect for readers of doomsday science, resilience and preparedness, and anyone who wants the facts without the hype.
Approximate length: ~120 pages.
Content note: Non-graphic descriptions of disasters; suitable for teens and adults.
