5.0 out of 5 stars The Chinless Wonder, 10 Aug 2009
By Mr. Patrick L. Miller "EduKator" (London UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Bertrand Russell, one of the most influential minds of the last century is at the height of his psycholinguistic manipulation techniques in this scorcher of a little book. Old 'Bert' as he was called by fellow dystopian prophet Aldous Huxley out does himself in this classic in 'elite mentality' observation. The only thing he forgets to tell you however is that he is one of them (The intellectual Aristocracy that is). Through an acute sense of logic and cold rationalism Russell guides the reader into a 'must be' future scenario in which the ruling elite use science to its full capacity in order to regiment the masses in every way from embryo fertilisation to the deathbed. He pulls no punches in his analysis and speaks on behalf of the elite so obviously in his descriptions of the 'Plebeians' who he also calls 'Cannon Fodder'. Although he tells you many truths within this enlightening book, he also omits certain facts in order to guide the reader in a certain path of acceptance of pseudo scientific fallacy such as 'Overpopulation' and 'Darwinism' which he believes to be 'fact' (ha-ha). A definite recommended read for an expose of the New World Order plan (as stated by Bush Snr in 1990 & 1991) years in advance and in fact forms a semi legal statement to the public of their coming demise. 5 stars, although 'Old Bert' gets 0 stars for humanity.
