" A History of the Future, by Donna Goodman, exhibits a thoroughly researched, chronological history of architecture that should satisfy everyone-from the newly curious to the most erudite of design enthusiasts." -Sophie Dawson, Vanity Fair "A History of the Future is already an essential book for historians in many fields (culture, ideas, literature, science, and technology), as well as a very stimulating study of modernity itself . . . [Donna Goodman's] lavish book should be ranked in the category 'history of ideas.'" -Southwest Journal of Cultures, "A History of the Future,by Donna Goodman, exhibits a thoroughly researched, chronological history of architecture that should satisfy everyone-from the newly curious to the most erudite of design enthusiasts." -Sophie Dawson,Vanity Fair "A History of the Future is already an essential book for historians in many fields (culture, ideas, literature, science, and technology), as well as a very stimulating study of modernity itself . . .

Synopsis
This multi-faceted survey of utopian ideas, presented with clarity and humor, will appeal to a broad general readership., The political, social, and economic upheaval of the early twentieth century generated an extraordinary range of proposals for the future as successive generations grappled with issues of organizing vast urban systems and humanizing dense industrial environments. As conceptual design became the vehicle for exploring ideas and presenting new movements, a dialogue between technology and design began to emerge. A History of the Future explores the impact of modern technology on design and planning, beginning with Renaissance concepts that laid the foundations for modern visionary work and concluding with emerging projects in sustainable design. It also includes relevant projects in related fields, such as film, photography, and industrial design. Profusely illustrated, A History of the Future is a visual survey of the heroic, utopian, and occasionally misguided visions of the twentieth century.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
