A Vision of the Future, Based on the Application of Ethical Principles
Jane Hume Clapperton
Suppose society were run on ethical principles from top to bottom: what would it look like? Clapperton begins with happiness itself, then works through the industrial revolution, organized industry, and the law of population to sketch the answer. A Victorian reformer's blueprint for a kinder social order, argued rather than dreamed. Utopia with its sleeves rolled up.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
