In this series of essays, Murray Bookchin balances his ecological and
anarchist vision with the promising opportunities of a "post-scarcity"
era. Technological advances during the 20th century have expanded
production in the pursuit of corporate profit at the expense of human
need and ecological sustainability. New possibilities for human freedom
must combine an ecological outlook with the dissolution of hierarchical
social relations, capitalism and canonical political orientation.
Bookchin's utopian vision, rooted in the realities of contemporary
society, remains refreshingly pragmatic. "Book-chin makes a trenchant
analysis of modern society and offers a pointed, provocative discussion
of the ecological crisis."--Library Journal
Murray Bookchin has been an active voice in the ecology and
anarchist movements for more than 40 years.
