Brave New World

by Aldous Huxley (Author)

Brave New World is a searching vision of an unequal, technologically advanced future in which humans are genetically bred, socially indoctrinated, and pharmaceutically anaesthetized to passively uphold an authoritarian ruling order–all at the cost of our freedom, full humanity, and perhaps even our souls. His masterpiece, Brave New World, has fascinated and scared millions of readers, and it retains its urgent relevance to this day as both a cautionary tale for the future and a thought-provoking, gratifying work of fiction. Brave New World was written in the shadow of the advent of fascism in the 1930s, and it refers to a 21st-century world ruled by mass entertainment, technology, medicine and medicines, persuasion arts, and the hidden influence of money.
