Review of City of Mann by L. Ross Coulter

The author poses an interesting thought experiment and uses it as a vehicle to make many utopian s-f speculations about humanity, the almighty, and modern society.

One must ponder the concept of intelligent design, entering into the strange world of sentient cities he created. Though lacking in action and traditional genre plots, there is enough food for thought here to satiate any sentient reader.
Through numerous examples, the author expounds how this space of citykind works, how they interact, grow, and affect change.
Perhaps he wishes to say that we are each like teeming cities. We contain multitudes as Whitman put it. We are phenomenally complex beings.
The sentences are clearly stated but often unutterably bizarre, disarming and yet, somehow heartwarming.
I wholeheartedly recommend this for the philosophically minded.
