Now more than ever: Aldous Huxleys enduring masterpiece ... one of the most prophetic dystopian works of the 20th century (Wall Street Journal) must be read and understood by anyone concerned with preserving the human spirit in the face of our brave new worldAldous Huxleys profoundly important classic of world literature, Brave New World is a searching vision of an unequal, technologically-advanced future where humans are genetically bred, socially indoctrinated, and pharmaceutically anesthetized to passively uphold an authoritarian ruling order--all at the cost of our freedom, full humanity, and perhaps also our souls. “A genius [who] who spent his life decrying the onward march of the Machine” (The New Yorker), Huxley was a man of incomparable talents: equally an artist, a spiritual seeker, and one of history’s keenest observers of human nature and civilization. Brave New World, his masterpiece, has enthralled and terrified millions of readers, and retains its urgent relevance to this day as both a warning to be heeded as we head into tomorrow and as thought-provoking, satisfying work of literature. Written in the shadow of the rise of fascism during the 1930s, Brave New World likewise speaks to a 21st-century world dominated by mass-entertainment, technology, medicine and pharmaceuticals, the arts of persuasion, and the hidden influence of elites. Aldous Huxley is the greatest 20th century writer in English. -Chicago TribuneThis book also includes the full text of Brave New World Revisited, Huxleys 1958 nonfiction followup to Brave New World. Review “[A] masterpiece. ... One of the most prophetic dystopian works of the 20th century.” - Wall Street Journal“As sparkling, as provocative, as brilliant...as the day it was published.” - Martin Green“One of the 20th century’s greatest writers.” - Washington Post“Chilling. . . . That he gave us the dark side of genetic engineering in 1932 is amazing.” - Providence Journal-Bulletin“A genius . . . a writer who spent his life decrying the onward march of the Machine.” - The New Yorker“Aldous Huxley is the greatest 20th century writer in English.” - Chicago Tribune“Huxley uses his erudite knowledge of human relations to compare our actual world with his prophetic fantasy of 1931. It is a frightening experience, indeed, to discover how much of his satirical prediction of a distant future became reality in so short a time.” - New York Times Book Review“A sometimes appallingly accurate view of today’s world.” - St. Louis Post-Dispatch “It’s time for everyone to read or reread Brave New World.” - Raleigh News & Observer From the Back Cover The astonishing novel Brave New World, originally published in 1932, presents Aldous Huxleys vision of the future -- of a world utterly transformed. Through the most efficient scientific and psychological engineering, people are genetically designed to be passive and therefore consistently useful to the ruling class. This powerful work of speculative fiction sheds a blazing critical light on the present and is considered to be Huxleys most enduring masterpiece.Following Brave New World is the nonfiction work Brave New World Revisited, first published in 1958. It is a fascinating work in which Huxley uses his tremendous knowledge of human relations to compare the modern-day world with the prophetic fantasy envisioned in Brave New World, including threats to humanity, such as overpopulation, propaganda, and chemical persuasion. About the Author Aldous Huxley (1894-1963) is the author of the classic novels Brave New World, Island, Eyeless in Gaza, and The Genius and the Goddess, as well as such critically acclaimed nonfiction works as The Perennial Philosophy and The Doors of Perception. Born in Surrey, England, and educated at Oxford, he died in Los Angeles, California.
