NY/London: A. S. Barnes and Company/Thomas Yoseloff Ltd, 1969. 204pp; [8] b&w plates at center. Black cloth; dust jacket. Soiling to textblock base, one spot to fore-edge; offsetting to endleaves; former owner's ex-libris plate to front pastedown; neat ink underlining to 17 pages at front of volume. Very good in unclipped jacket, with toning and small edge chips, some foxing/toning to interior. Scarce first edition of this co-authored work of speculative futurism; an analysis of factors that drive social and technological development, followed by a lengthy description of a hypothetical, science-fiction inflected Utopian society of the 21st century (including the "cybernator," a "seemingly magical computer device" responsible for regulating the daily lives of human beings). Keyes Jr. (1921-1995) was a personal growth author and founder of the self-help movement Living Love; Fresco (1916-2017) a noted futurist and social engineer, who with his wife founded The Venus Project in 1985.
