The book explains how machine users who are accidentally trapped in any historical period should survive when a machine breaks downWhat's more, if you are trapped in the ancient era of uncivilized civilization, how should you build your own civilization from scratch?

Although the setting of this book is relatively nonsensical, after removing the mischievous background setting, 99% of the content of the whole book is definitely a work of excellent content popularization. For example, at the beginning, the author introduces how to determine the age when "trapped in the past", how to build a civilization from scratch, and how to formulate a common unit of measurement, which is actually the evolutionary history of the earth and civilization itself. For example, the introduction of agriculture, animal husbandry, medicine, and first aid in the book is actually very important for real life, and many of the contents are also worth trying. And in the end, the description of **, visual and even philosophical can only be pure science popularization for most people.
