Language: Eng.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA novel both timely and prophetic, Ernest Callenbachâ s Ecotopia is a hopeful antidote to the environmental concerns of today, set in an ecologically sound future society. Hailed by the Los Angeles Times as the â newest name after Wells, Verne, Huxley, and Orwell,â Callenbach offers a visionary blueprint for the survival of our planet . . . and our future.Ecotopia was founded when northern California, Oregon, and Washington seceded from the Union to create a â stable-stateâ ecosystem: the perfect balance between human beings and the environment. Now, twenty years later, this isolated, mysterious nation is welcoming its first officially sanctioned American visitor: New York Times-Post reporter Will Weston.Skeptical yet curious about this green new world, Weston is determined to report his findings objectively. But from the start, heâ s alternately impressed and unsettled by the laws governing Ecotopiaâ s earth-friendly agenda: energy-efficient â mini-citiesâ to eliminate urban sprawl, zero-tolerance pollution control, tree worship, ritual war games, and a woman-dominated government that has instituted such peaceful revolutions as the twenty-hour workweek and employee ownership of farms and businesses. His old beliefs challenged, his cynicism replaced by hope, Weston meets a sexually forthright Ecotopian woman and undertakes a relationship whose intensity will lead him to a critical choice between two worlds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ernest Callenbach","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53099308843232,"sku":"9780553261837","price":216.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/5681\/6608\/files\/21hj76yk0ZL.jpg?v=1781704022","url":"https:\/\/medicalbook.online\/products\/ecotopia-1","provider":"medicalbook.online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
