The Tomorrow City

'''Hughes, Monica. The Tomorrow City.''' London: Hamish Hamilton, 1978.

Children's novel with computer-takeover premise. The City Central Computer for Thomasville logically but unfeelingly attempts to make Thomasville into a perfect city by eliminating useless people, controlling behavior through surveillance and subliminal suggestion, and engaging in other standard acts of gentle but total control.
