The City of Perfection is a book written by Thomas L. Masson that explores the concept of utopia and its implications for society. The book delves into the history of utopian thought and the various attempts throughout history to create a perfect society. It also examines the potential dangers and limitations of utopian thinking, including the potential for totalitarianism and the suppression of individual freedoms.Throughout the book, Masson draws on a wide range of historical and literary examples to illustrate his arguments, including Plato's Republic, Sir Thomas More's Utopia, and Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. He also examines contemporary examples of utopian thinking, such as the rise of Silicon Valley and the tech industry's attempts to create a perfect society through technology.Overall, The City of Perfection is a thought-provoking exploration of the concept of utopia and its relevance to contemporary society. It challenges readers to consider the potential benefits and drawbacks of utopian thinking and to question the assumptions underlying our ideas about what constitutes a perfect society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
