The temptation to describe the future in terms of achievement of perfection is a trait shared by many other writers that were close to positivism. Nevertheless, the book demonstrates how at times these operations of alternative history can nourish an image that is not confident, but on the contrary concerned about the repercussions on human qualities of a world overly grounded in technology and the tangible values of economic development.Science fiction, FrenchScience fiction, French.843.0876De Boni Claudio126284NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910477314103321Descrivere il futuro2117017UNINA
