Earth sends groups of people into space to practice their own beliefs, and three societies of the far future are described. The first is the result of a planet peopled by transported criminals. They develop into a series of isolated strongholds adept at war and opposed to labor and includes a group of nomadic Romany or Gypsies. The second, Hygeia, was settled by Naturists, is inhabited by healthy people, and is a eutopia. The third, Gands, was founded on Gandhian principles and is \ an anarchist eutopia.

The story is a response to the theories of Richard [Sharpe] Shaver (1907-75), who argued for an underground world of evil, and is presented by the author as autobiography with supporting notes by the editor of the journal, Ray[mond Arthur] Palmer (1910-77).

Rogers and 20.9 (December 1946) as by Margaret Rogers. The last reference to her is often reported as her writing a review of Jim Wentworth\’s The Beginning, which was about her case, in Amazing Stories 22.2 (February 1948): 105. What is actually on that page is a statement by the editor of the journal about a self-published book by Rogers entitled The Beginning that he had read. No such book by either Rogers or Wentworth appears to have survived. Female author.

Sequel to 1936-7 Schuyler in which the Black Internationale is established in Liberia to carry out its mission of liberating Africa. After Liberia is attacked by European forces, much of the novel is on the war. Everyone is required to have a thorough physical exam, and if they are found to have an incurable disease, they are euthanized. On the other hand, they have developed permanent cures for many diseases. Model kitchens that will be established throughout Africa both prepare food for the district and are used to teach people the relationship between a good diet and health.

In \"The Hardy Annual\" another planet is visited that is inhabited by the Greek Empedocles, his descendants, and beings he has created. \"The Windmillers\" describes the society of that planet, which stresses science and mutual respect. The other stories, two of which were also published in New Age, are not utopian.

Limited hours of work. \“You see, when all the people work, not for money-profit but simply for the needed things, and when we all co-operate in the making of them, there is enough made in much less time than you would think\” (191-92).

The castaways were three men, including one stereotyped black man, who did the cooking and carried the provisions but is described as a friend.
