Synopsis:
Dr Tainter describes nearly two dozen cases of collapse and reviews more than 2000 years of explanations. He then develops a new and far-reaching theory.
Review:
'Tainter's model accommodates all levels of complexity and all kinds of evidence. It deserves to be widely read.' Antiquity
'Tainter's is an attractive and compelling thesis, of a genre which is nearly extinct among domestic historians.' History Today
