Annotation

Eutopia. Detailed description of a complete society without traditional city-country divisions or families. Everyone lives in large apartment blocks holding about a thousand people where everyone has their own unit and with a common kitchen, nurseries, and other cooperative amenities. While these buildings cover the landscape and are connected by an elaborate system of roads and railroads, there is enough land between them that everyone has immediate access to green space. Each building is a productive unit and trade among the buildings ensures that each building has all it needs. The book includes a number of charts laying out the organization of the communities. See also 1915, 1923 and 1927 Olerich.
