Unlikely to be the same.

you can NOT change human natureStarted Semiosis by Sue Burke. This is an interesting S.F. book to me. It follows a group of about 30 original colonists who have escaped earth as global warming is ruining the planet. They are going to start a society with equality, cooperating with the natural order, and without capitalism.
