Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - What if the modern world is not as digital, clean, and weightless as we were taught to believe Every morning, we touch a phone, step across concrete, eat food grown with nitrogen, move through steel, buy products wrapped in plastic, and trust hospitals, supermarkets, data centers, ports, ro…ads, and grids to work as if they were natural facts of life. They are not. The Fossil Skeleton is a provocative nonfiction journey into the hidden material operating system of modern civilization. Beneath the cloud, AI, clean-energy promises, finance, cities, hospitals, food chains, and war machines lies a deeper body: steel, concrete, plastics, and ammonia. This is not an anti-fossil manifesto. It is not another simple climate book. It is an anatomy of dependency. Fossil fuels did not merely power the modern world. They helped feed it, build it, sterilize it, package it, transport it, defend it, and make it feel normal. That is the uncomfortable paradox at the center of this book: the same industrial system that wounded the planet also made modern abundance, medicine, shelter, food scale, and infrastructure possible. Through breakfast tables, hospital beds, supermarket aisles, apartment walls, data centers, furnaces, fertilizer plants, petrochemicals, geopolitics, and the energy transition, ROLFF P. exposes the civilization we live inside but rarely see. This book asks the question public debate often avoids: Can we rebuild the future without pretending we have escaped the materials that built the present For readers of sweeping nonfiction about energy, economics, climate, infrastructure, geopolitics, technology, and the hidden systems behind everyday life, The Fossil Skeleton offers a sharper lens: the digital age did not abolish the industrial age. It added software to it. After this book, you may never look at a phone, a city, a hospital, a grocery store, or the green transition the same way again.
