From author and psychologist B. F. Skinner, regarded by many as the most important and influential psychologist since Freud, comes Walden Two. This fictional outline of a modern utopia has been a center of controversy ever since its publication in 1948. Set in the United States, it depicts a society in which human problems are solved by a scientific technology of human conduct. The novel describes an experimental community called "Walden Two", whose members are happy, productive, and creative; their happiness derives from non-nuclear family life; amazingly limited work hours; communal child-raising; free affection; the creation of art, music, and literature; opportunity for games of chess and tennis; and ample rest, food, and sleep. It's a utopia inspired by the experience described in Henry David Thoreau's Walden, but with company. Fans of philosophical writers like Ayn Rand or Karl Marx and imagined utopia's like Aldous Huxley's Island will enjoy broadening their minds with the challenging ideas described by Skinner in this classic novel.

A fascinating study into the mechanics of a utopian society using social and behavioural engineering. The book also explores the idea of a benevolent dictator(ship) and many of the ethics and morals that accompany these themes. A must listen, especially if Nineteen Eighty four:George Orwell, and Brave New World Aldus Huxley are of interest, and possibly Island also by Huxley (which I haven't read/listened to yet).

A fascinating study of a utopian society

I got to this book after listening to Surveillance Capitalism. I had to understand what the reference to this book and to B. F. Skinner were.

Interesting and leave room for though

Very thought provoking analysis of society and how it could be improved. No plot or story, but very interesting if you like anthropology.

A long, interesting thought experiment
