The private future: causes and consequences of community collapse in the West by
Martin Pawley(
Book
)
23 editions published between 1973 and 1977 in English and held by 652 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
The Private Future, a book of social prophecy, originally published in 1973, provides evidence of how penetrating Pawley's vision could be. He foresaw a society with ever greater technical means of communication becoming paradoxically more insular and dysfunctional. Reading his description of what we now recognise as an iPod-plugged web surfer you have to remind yourself that it was written on an Olympia typewriter long before the advent of the word processor or the mobile phone
