Utopia for Realists: How We Can Build the Ideal World

by Rutger Bregman
Utopia for Realists: How We Can Build the Ideal World
Utopia for Realists: How We Can Build the Ideal World

Radical ideas for transforming our socioeconomic landscape.

If you're feeling disillusioned with the exhausting cycle of work-spend, Rutger Bregman's "Utopia for Realists" might be the breath of fresh intellectual air you need. It's not just a theoretical musing; it serves as a beacon of hope by backing audacious concepts with historical precedents and ongoing experiments. Imagine a world where work is a choice, not a necessity—this book paints that picture with convincing strokes.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
