This book is the story of life as we don't know it.
6 Oct 1998
Format:Library Binding
This book can be related to today's society in many ways. If you don't know what is going on, read and learn. I am a young woman (17), and it tought me that I should always look for the truth. I can trully see our government manufacturing babies in the future. This book is real.

The book brings out the best quality of being human
28 Mar 1998
Format:Paperback
David Keller I believe that "Brave New World" should be read by all people who feel that life is nothing more than play. To me, the author brings out a whole new perspective in life. Many people take the ability to think and reason for granite. If the right to think was one day taken from them, they would feel sorrow and pity for never using it. I asked a lot of my friends if they would rather lay around and drink soma while having erotic sex or if they would rather read literature and have a piece of mind to themselves. More than half of the people would rather drink soma. What has happened to the world? Have we invented to many easy ways to slack off. Have we made the brain a non-functioning machine? Maybe it is not the kids fault. Maybe it is the adults that have pushed so hard for progression that it is pulling a reversal and regressing the next generation. Huxley writes very clearly and makes known what he means. He is a very good writer and should continue an episode of "Brave New World". Huxley was not that far off in predicting what the future will be like seeing that he was 50 years in the past. It took a lot of time to animate such a utopia into a living and breathing thing. I give him much props and hope that he keeps up the good work

Idiots.
13 Mar 2006
Format:Library Binding
The last two reviewers are idiots. The book is Huxley's satire on modern society, and he criticizes the rampant sexuality of it. This Bloom's Notes book has excellent literary criticism to accompany its summaries, etc. Definitely use it for AP, IB English.
