Soft Cover Good/No Jacket Edition: Second Printing, July 1963 Brown printer wrapper. Volume is lightly worn with scuffs to the edges. Now in protective wrap. "Utopias, says the author, are men's reactions on their environment, their attempts to make a reality over, after a human pattern, and a forecast of what someday will be realized. There are utopias of escape and utopias of reconstruction. The book concerns itself with both, describing the classic examples of the former from Plato to H.G. Wells, and dividing the latter into social myths and the partial utopias of the social theorists."
