The astonishing novel Brave New World, originally published in 1932, presents Aldous Huxley's legendary vision of a world of tomorrow utterly transformed. In Huxley's darkly satiric yet chillingly prescient imagining of a "utopian" future, humans are genetically designed and pharmaceutically anesthetized to passively serve a ruling order. A powerful work of speculative fiction that has enthralled and terrified readers for generations, it remains remarkably relevant to this day as both a warning to be heeded and as a thought-provoking yet satisfying entertainment.

This deluxe edition also includes the nonfiction work "Brave New World Revisited," "a thought-jabbing, terrifying book" (Chicago Tribune), first published in 1958. It is a fascinating essay in which Huxley compares the modern-day world with his prophetic fantasy envisioned in Brave New World. He scrutinizes threats to humanity such as overpopulation, propaganda, and chemical persuasion, and explains why we have found it virtually impossible to avoid them.

看完这本书我是无比的悲哀。之所以悲哀是因为我认同这个可怕的乌托帮,我也无比坚定的相信我们的世界正在向那个方向发展。身在世界上最先进最富有的国家,这种感受尤为强烈。电视节目的完全娱乐化,每一个人群都有麻醉自己的节目;所有的声音都告诉你,你应该满足于现在这样的...

与1984相比,这个世界似乎要美好的多,人们不需要压抑自己的欲望,可以尽可能的作乐。是个幸福的世界,但是又很恐怖,因为很多世界观是我们接受不了了,没有父母,没有亲人,没有家庭,没有婚姻,没有爱。人们只是做着自己该做的和想做的。人是被按照需要创在出来的,而且千篇...
