Hey all, just wanted to recommend a book titled "The col lapse of complex societies" by Joseph Tainter.

The author picks 3 extinct complex civilisations and give the most likely reasons it happened.

It's a book for academia so, half of it is kind of boring because it's really a bibliographical review of different theories but it gets going once the author starts laying out his ideas on complexity, society and economic growth.
