Published in hardcover for the first time in forty years, two
classics of environmental science fiction "One of the most
important utopian novels of the twentieth century that still has
very important lessons to teach us. It will always convey to
perfection the wild optimism of that moment: a feeling we need to
recapture, adjusted for our time."-Kim Stanley Robinson on 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.
