In the book, Maximized Entropy: Death of the Internet, the main character SYLVIA MOON, former CEO of a homeless shelter now a barely employed security salesperson, struggles to cope since the demise of the internet. It is not that SYLVIA cannot live without the world wide web, but the insurmountable changes attributed to the global networking loss make for apocalyptic times. The modern world is adversely affected by the lack of internet capabilities, i.e., entertainment and travel industries, retail and wholesale operations, pornographic trades, and financial institutions. In summary, the world goes to hell over a short period of time and a fresh new underbelly of society is exposed.

Think about it .... what the world would look like without internet capabilities? This book will help you to imagine this future contemporary society in all of its diabolically depraved glory.
