Editorial Review:

Product Description:
A fantasy of the future that sheds a blazing critical light on the present--considered to be Aldous Huxley's most enduring masterpiece.

"Mr. Huxley is eloquent in his declaration of an artist's faith in man, and it is his eloquence, bitter in attack, noble in defense, that, when one has closed the book, one remembers."
--Saturday Review of Literature

"A Fantastic racy narrative, full of much excellent satire and literary horseplay."
--Forum

"It is as sparkling, provocative, as brilliant, in the appropriate sense, as impressive ads the day it was published. This is in part because its prophetic voice has remained surprisingly contemporary, both in its particular forecasts and in its general tone of semiserious alarm. But it is much more because the book succeeds as a work of art...This is surely Huxley's best book."
--Martin Green

Amazon.com Review:
"Community, Identity, Stability" is the motto of Aldous Huxley's utopian World State. Here everyone consumes daily grams of soma, to fight depression, babies are born in laboratories, and the most popular form of entertainment is a "Feelie," a movie that stimulates the senses of sight, hearing, and touch. Though there is no violence and everyone is provided for, Bernard Marx feels something is missing and senses his relationship with a young women has the potential to be much more than the confines of their existence allow. Huxley foreshadowed many of the practices and gadgets we take for granted today--let's hope the sterility and absence of individuality he predicted aren't yet to come.

- Brave New World
I did not like this book. It had a few interesting elements but the concepts are a little "out there." I would not recommend this book to anyone unless they had nothing else to read. I did not even finish the book.

- You have to be brave to read this book
This is a great book to challenge the belief that there should be no pain, aging, sickness, etc. in our life.

The government believes that by controlling everything in the environment, and by creating classes of people based on chemical tampering and subliminal programming during the incubation process (as babies are developing in the lab), people can be made to have a "happy" and productive life. The problem is that emotion, spirituality, liberty, and questioning is not allowed to ... Read More

- One of the scariest books I have ever read.
"Brave New World" is a novel of a particular, possible, future and has been a 'classic' since the 1940s. Today (2008), that 'future' still seems all too possible. I think it is one of the scariest books I have ever read. "1984" was one of the other scariest books.

I recommend reading this book as well as "1984". Then, work against both of these possible futures.

Rating:

- Open your mind
Although this book was written in 1932, the concepts are as real today as anytime in the past. This is a timely classic allowing us to see a could be society but also the idiosyncrociesof todays society.

Rating:

- Prompt and accurate
I was very happy with the speed of delivery and the book's quality (which was on par with what the sender had described). Keep up the good work!
