After Utopia Mack Reynolds

It is the far future. Earth is beautifully planned, efficiently run and happily united. It is the world that dreamers have envisioned since the beginning of time -- no slums, no crime, no poverty, no disease, no shortages. But still, it is a world with problems. People have become so lazy, so self-satisfied, that human progress has all but ceased. To make matters worse, addicts of the newly-developed "programmed dreams" are increasing at an enormous rate.

Only a few individuals understand the far-reaching consequences of these problems; only a few realize that the human race is destroying itself.

What these few individuals do is the basis of another fantastic novel of the possible future by the author of ROLLTOWN, LOOKING BACKWARD FROM THE YEAR 2000 and BLACKMAN'S BURDEN.
