In The Story of Utopias, Mumford deals with The New Age, socialism, social sciences, mysticism and utopia. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.</p><p>This is a survey of the development of the concept of Utopia, by one of the foremost urban planning theorists of the 20th century. This was Mumfords first book. He starts with a survey of the major utopias, some well-known, others less so. We look at Platos Republic, Mores Utopia, Andres Christanopolis, Bacons New Atlantis, Campanellas City of the Sun, Fouriers Phalanxes, Cabets Icaria, Bellamys Looking Backward, Morris News from Nowhere, and finally H.G. Wells utopian fiction. In the final portion of the book Mumford explores the prospects for Utopia and relates it to the realities of urban planning. Mumfords prose style is engaging and this is a great introduction to this fascinating subject.</p>...3597598The Story of Utopias6161https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-story-of-utopias-9781623941116/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2870501/73d952d5-69ca-4968-a113-7c15bff7492a.jpg?v=638384564233730000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20129781623941116_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_<p>The Story of Utopias<br />by Lewis Mumford</p><p>This early work is the first book written by the American historian, philosopher, literary critic and humanist, Lewis Mumford.
