Sinossi

"Nomadic Time" explores how nomadic cultures, particularly the Mongols and Bedouins, structured their lives around environmental rhythms rather than fixed calendars. This approach, termed "environmental time," challenges the assumption that linear time is the most advanced way to organize society. The book reveals that these societies developed sophisticated systems attuned to their environments, enabling sustainable resource management and social cohesion.

 
One intriguing fact is that the Mongols scheduled social gatherings and political decisions based on seasonal events, showcasing the deep integration of natural cycles into their societal structure. Similarly, the Bedouins used celestial navigation not only for daily travel but also to determine optimal times for planting and harvesting, illustrating their profound understanding of astronomy.

 
The book delves into the seasonal migrations of the Mongols, driven by the need to find grazing lands and water, and the Bedouins' reliance on stars for navigation across vast deserts. It progresses by first contrasting environmental time with linear time, then examining the Mongols' seasonal movements, followed by the Bedouins' celestial navigation.

 
By exploring these alternative temporal paradigms, "Nomadic Time" offers valuable insights into human adaptability and sustainable living. The book offers a fresh perspective by challenging Eurocentric notions of time and progress.

    The environmental crisis will not be solved by battery technology. We are looking for answers in the wrong places.
    
    
    
    Life began with the hydrogenation of CO2, and this is the process we must return to in order to heal the planet. Ground-breaking ongoing research into bacterial processes means our knowledge of bacterial processes is ever-expanding, and we can harness this new knowledge to develop a parallel carbon economy using engineered bacteria for fuel, food, and materials. This would enable rewilding on a vast scale, with the small land footprint of bacterial technologies solving the current conflict in land use between farming and fuel and materials production.
    
    
    
    In this fascinating and illuminating book, Peter Forbes shines a light on this crucial technology and offers a tantalising glimpse at what is possible. To solve the big problems, sometimes you have to think small.
