Description
John Ruskin was a Victorian age intellectual whose ideas continue to shape our world today. His influence can be seen in the modern welfare state, universal education and healthcare, and environmental movements. Ruskin's life story is intertwined with the places and people who were influenced by his thoughts on art, architecture, design, and social justice. This book retraces Ruskin's steps, exploring how his ideas continue to impact our lives and the world around us. From his critique of free market economics to his advocacy for environmental sustainability, Ruskin's work remains relevant and thought-provoking.
