A wide-ranging reevaluation of utopian literature and philosophy, from Plato to Chang-Rae Lee Examining literary and philosophical writing about ideal societies from Greek antiquity to the present, Inventions of Nemesis offers a striking new take on utopia’s fundamental project. Noting that utopian imagining has often been propelled by an angry conviction that society is badly arranged, Douglas Mao argues that utopia’s essential aim has not been to secure happiness, order, or material goods, but rather to establish a condition of justice in which all have what they ought to have. He also makes the case that hostility to utopias has frequently been associated with a fear that they will transform humanity beyond recognition, doing away with the very subjects who should receive justice in a transformed world. Further, he shows how utopian writing speaks to contemporary debates about immigration, labor, and other global justice issues. Along the way, Inventions of Nemesis connects utopia to the Greek concept of nemesis, or indignation at a wrong ordering of things, and advances fresh readings of dozens of writers and thinkers—from Plato, Thomas More, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Edward Bellamy, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, and H. G. Wells to John Rawls, Robert Nozick, Fredric Jameson, Ursula Le Guin, Octavia Butler, and Chang-Rae Lee. Ambitious and timely, Inventions of Nemesis offers a vital reconsideration of what it really means to imagine an ideal society.

EXTRAORDINARY TALES THAT CHANGED THE WORLD The world that we live in today was carved with the sacrifices of heroes. Some of them we admire, but some… not as well as we should. Through this book, Girish V. Magre has brought to us six turbulent stories. He has laid before us the lives of the inventors that directly or indirectly contributed to giving us the comfortable lives that we lead today and yet do not know much about. These unsung heroes are Nikola Tesla, Alfred Nobel, Viktor Frankl, Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar, Mary Beatrice and Robert Kearns. These dramatic stories of grit, determination and ingenuity to overcome obstacles are more powerful than fiction and inspiring in the true sense of the word. The author believes a plunge into these stormy lives shall leave the reader a different person and full of appreciation for the comforts and conveniences at our disposal today.
