What's wrong with the world today?
Aldous Huxley knew 50 years ago.
A non-fiction companion to his novel Brave New World, Brave New World Revisited was written over 25 years after Huxley's most famous novel and compares his book to the state of the world in 1958 and where the state of the world is headed. If you are a fan of Brave New World, 1984, Noam Chomsky, Carl Jung, Zeitgeist (the movie), or this sort of thing, this is a must read.
The book is made up of a number of essays on topics as various as mass-hypnosis and birth-control.
There are a few little nuggets in here that are just simply priceless.
AKA: Loved the book.
