Voyage from Yesteryear

Voyage from Yesteryear is a 1982 science fiction novel by the author James P. Hogan which explores themes of anarchism and the appropriateness of certain social values in the context of high-technology. The inspiration for the novel was the contention that the ongoing conflict in Northern Ireland had no immediate practical solution, and could only be solved if the children of one generation were somehow separated from their parents, and hence did not learn any of their prejudices. The novel was awarded the 1983 Prometheus Award for libertarian science fiction.
