The novel predicts things like digital watches, bullet trains, women's equality and golf clubs that automatically keep score. It's like "Looking Backward" with a utopia based on golf instead of socialism.

I created a Sony Reader version that I'll upload later.
Sounds like a lot of fun ! I really need to read this one.
