When the novel "Brave New World" first appeared in 1932, its
shocking analysis of a scientific dictatorship seemed a projection
into the remote future. Here, in one of the most important and
fascinating books of his career, Aldous Huxley uses his tremendous
knowledge of human relations to compare the modern-day world with
his prophetic fantasy. He scrutinizes threats to humanity, such as
overpopulation, propaganda, and chemical persuasion, and explains
why we have found it virtually impossible to avoid them. "Brave New
World Revisited" is a trenchant plea that humankind should educate
itself for freedom before it is too late.
