Brave New World Revisited
by Aldous Huxley
When the Brave New World novel first appeared in 1932, the shocking analysis of scientific dictatorship seemed like a projection for the distant future. Here, in one of the most important and fascinating books of his career, Aldous Huxley uses his vast knowledge of human relationships to compare the modern world with his prophetic imagination. It examines threats to humanity such as overpopulation, propaganda, and chemical beliefs, and explains why we believe they are nearly impossible to avoid. The brave new world has been revisited – a trench call that humanity must educate itself for freedom before it is too late. Brave New World Revised is not a reprint or revision of the Brave New World novel, but a journalistic exploration of its themes.
