The Complete Ecotopia

Collected in one handsome volume for the first time, The Complete Ecotopia presents an early classic of environmental science fiction in its entirety. Ecotopia (1975) and Ecotopia Emerging (1981), which paint detailed portraits of a healthier earth and a happier society, became foundational texts for a new wave of environmental activists, and they still, contain an abundance of ideas, yet to be, realized. Ernest Callenbach's Ecotopian saga anticipated climate fiction, by more than a decade, sold approximately one-million copies and was, translated into one dozen languages, and predicted a host of innovations running from C-SPAN to widespread recycling. This edition includes, two retrospective essays by the author, as well as, an updated foreword by Heyday founder Malcolm Margolin. An important document of utopian ideas from the sixties and seventies, The Complete Ecotopia is also, a stimulating read for environmentalists today, one that tells a bold, inventive, and adventurous story.
