Preparing to Survive in the Age of Collapse: Political, Military, Foreign Policy, and Preparedness Reforms Vital for Our Survival - Hardcover

Preparing to Survive in the Age of Collapse reads as a former intelligence officer's threat list, then as what he thinks a household should do.

Drew Miller spent his career inside the machinery that is supposed to see this coming, and the book is written in that register: flat, specific, and not much interested in reassuring anyone.

What it argues

Two halves. The first is the case that collapse level risk is now normal rather than remote. The second is practical, and covers preparation at the level of an actual family with an actual house.

Good to know

The policy chapters are deliberately provocative. Some of the reforms proposed here will read as unthinkable depending on where you sit, and the book knows it. Read it as an argument to push against, not a consensus brief.

From the publisher

Preparing to Survive in the Age of Collapse is not just a wake-up call: it's a survival blueprint to make it through what lies ahead.

We have entered "The Age of Collapse," an era where mankind will suffer severe disasters because of new technologies, such as bioengineering, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and our fragile economic system, irresponsible government, and dependent, unprepared population. Written by Dr.

Drew Miller, a former intelligence officer, retired Air Force Colonel, Department of Defense analyst, and Harvard PhD, this book delivers credible, unfiltered warnings about the grave threats facing America today.

From AI being weaponized by rogue states and terrorists to an imminent H5N1 pandemic, from the risk of civil war in a politically fractured nation to China's looming invasion of Taiwan that could lead to nuclear conflict, the threats are real, immediate, and potentially catastrophic. Unlike mainstream reporting that ignores these dangers, Dr.

Miller's book presents a blunt, evidence-based analysis of current collapse threats. Readers will learn how advanced AI will create weapons of mass destruction, how our political dysfunction and unconstitutional governance have left us exposed, and why collapse is not just possible, but inevitable. But this book isn't just about warning--it's about action.

It offers practical advice on prepping, bug-out planning, civil defense, and using tools like the Collapse Survivor App to stay informed. It also proposes bold reforms to restore constitutional limits and get responsible government back to prepare for collapse disasters.

Controversial reform proposals include banning legislators from having civil defense protection not afforded to all citizens, revoking the US promise to defend Taiwan, and allying with China in a global alliance to prevent super-intelligent AGI that could exterminate humanity.

Living in the Age of Collapse with repeated Weapons of Mass Destruction attacks and collapse disasters will initially cause tremendous fatalities and devastation until we have prepared. . . but we can adapt . . .

and if we reform foreign and military policies, switch to more rural living, sustainable farming, and local production, change human behavior, the Age of Collapse could actually provide a higher quality of life and better planet than we have now. This book proposes a way to prepare for the Age of Collapse and save humanity.

For everyone who wants to survive, Preparing to Survive in the Age of Collapse is essential reading.
