Re: (Fwd) Re: Project for the First People's Century

        Please forgive the immodesty, but I would like to think that some
of my books belong on the list of titles you seek to compile.  They
include THE CITY OF MAN (Houghton Mifflin, 1963;  and Penguin, 1967);
BUILDING THE CITY OF MAN (Grossman, 1971);  and A SHORT HISTORY OF THE
FUTURE (U. of Chicago Press, 1989;  3rd edition, 1999), which imagines a
global democratic commonwealth in being much later in this century.  Also
Dr. Prugovecki's futuristic novels, MEMOIRS OF THE FUTURE (Cross Cultural
Publications, 2001) and DAWN (Xlibris, 2002), offering the vision of an
electronically mediated planetary democracy known as "Terra."

        Cordially,
