A Journey in Other Worlds John Jacob Astor http://www.feedbooks.com/book/905 urn:isbn:0803259492 en 1894 Novels Science Fiction What did our ancestors dream of when they gazed up at the stars and looked beyond the present? Wildly imaginative but grounded in reasoned scientific speculation, A Journey in Other Worlds races far ahead of the nineteenth century to imagine what life would be like in the year 2000. At the beginning of the twenty-first century, Earth is effectively a corporate technocracy, with big businesses using incredible advances in science to improve life on the planet as a whole. Seeking other planets habitable for the growing human population, the spaceship Callisto, powered by an antigravitational force known as apergy, embarks on a momentous tour of the solar system. Jupiter proves to be a wilderness paradise, full of threatening beasts and landscapes of inspired beauty, where the explorers must fight for their lives. Dangers less tangible but equally deadly await the Callisto crew on Saturn, which yields profound secrets about their fate and the ultimate destiny of mankind. Thoughtful, adventurous, and replete with a dazzling array of futuristic devices, A Journey in Other Worlds is a classic, unforgettable story of utopias and humankind’s restless exploration of the stars.

In the book, the narrator, William Guest, falls asleep after returning from a meeting of the Socialist League and awakes to find himself in a future society based on common ownership and democratic control of the means of production. In this society there is no private property, no big cities, no authority, no monetary system, no divorce, no courts, no prisons, and no class systems. This agrarian society functions simply because the people find pleasure in nature, and therefore they find pleasure in their work. The book explores a number of aspects of this society, including its organisation and the relationships which it engenders between people. http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2415.png http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2415.pdf http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2415.epub http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2415.mobi A Martian Odyssey Stanley Grauman Weinbaum http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2244 urn:isbn:1846770602 en 1934 Short Fiction Science Fiction This work is available for countries where copyright is Life+70. http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2244.png http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2244.pdf http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2244.epub http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2244.mobi The Things that Make Me Weak and Strange Get Engineered Away Cory Doctorow http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2746 en 2008 Short Fiction Science Fiction Please read the legal notice included in this e-book and/or check the copyright status in your country. http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2746.png http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2746.pdf http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2746.epub http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2746.mobi The Machine That Saved The World Murray Leinster http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2733 urn:isbn:B000XMG3TC en 1957 Short Fiction Science Fiction They were broadcasts from nowhere--sinister emanations flooding in from space--smashing any receiver that picked them up.
