Book details

Colin Ward was an anarchist, a journalist, and the author of books on architecture, work, childhood, education, social history and many other topics of importance to those who seek a better world. A quiet man of great integrity, he won an admiring and affectionate readership across the world, and was one of the most influential thinkers of his generation.

At his funeral on 1 March 2010, relatives and friends were invited to remember Colin, and these talks comprise the opening section of this short collection. A memorial meeting was held at Conway Hall, London, on 10 July, 2010, and the tributes given there follow. A selected bibliography of Colin’s major publications is provided at the end.
