A Week in the Future: Prologue, Lesley Durrell Ljungdahl , single work criticism
Ljungdahl explores the extent to which this novel of ideas draws on Clapperton's Scientific Melioration. She highlights the social changes outlined in A Week in the Future, but notes that the optimistic solutions Spence finds for society's problems are only superficially dealt with.
