The premise is what could happen if our electrical infrastructure was to go down. The severe chaos that would follow such an event is detailed in this book in an extremely believeable manner.
After reading this book you may want to stock up on food, water, batteries and ammo. You might even want to find yourself an old car or bike that would run after the apocalypse. The scary part of reading this is when you realize how easily this scenario could unfold. The sheer number of people in this country who would be unable to survive for any length of time because they are totally reliant upon other people for their subsistance is mind boggling. Think about it. How many people do you know that can fix a car, build a water distillation system, hunt or trap wild game, catch a fish, build a fire without matches, etc.? Scary isn't it?
