Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The early 20th century's futuristic utopian plans for home and work - all here in vivid colour. Promises for the future were made; some sadly broken and some unfortunately honored. While society didn't get household jetpacks and personal robots, we did get things like the super-fantastic building materials of the future - asbestos, lead and foam. So just what was the utopian master plan for future households during the early 20th century? "Follies of Science" is the keeper of such knowledge, offering glimpses into sparkling, smooth lead paint covering our living room walls, dazzling DDT foggers killing mosquitoes dead, alchemists transforming atoms into gold and diamonds, homeowners living in "The Foam House of the Future," and, of course, commuters blasting away on their jet packs to work. Aptly illustrated with full-colour and b/w classic imagery from such greats as Popular Mechanics, the visions of the future spread across page after page, pulling the reader in to what could have been and what shouldn't have been. Presents the early 20th century's futuristic utopian plans for home and work. This work offers glimpses into smooth lead paint covering the room walls, DDT foggers killing mosquitoes dead, alchemists transforming atoms into gold and diamonds, homeowners living in "The Foam House of the Future," and commuters blasting away on their jet packs.

paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
