Rezensionen
Nielsen BookData
"Invented Edens offers a profoundly original perspective on the interaction between technology and everyday life in the twentieth century. Using case-studies of planned urban environments, the book makes a path-breaking contribution to our understanding of modernity. Kargon and Molella present a galaxy of visionaries ---- and show in fascinating detail how the interplay between the ideas and actions of these modern-minded critics of the machine-age contributed to the fashioning of cityscapes in which industrial technology and human values could exist in harmony, not in conflict."--Robert Fox, Department of History, Oxford University "With imagination and wide-ranging scholarship, Robert H. Kargon and Arthur P. Molella bring together Techno-Cities from New Deal America to fascist Italy to communist Russia. And behind this remarkable synthesis is a deep examination of the power and limitation of utopian planning to shape actual cities."--Robert Fishman, Emil Lorch Professor, Taubman College of Architecture and Planning, University of Michigan -- Robert Fishman "With imagination and wide-ranging scholarship, Robert H.
