具體描述

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.

2503年,一个婴儿养育室里。护士们在地板上摆了一堆图书和鲜花,然后把一群长得一摸一样的、8个月大的婴儿放到了地板上。婴儿们看到图书和鲜花,飞快地爬过去,拿起来玩耍。这时候,长官一声令下,护士长启动电路装置,一时间,刺耳的警报响起,地板被通上了电,触电的...

最初了解到《美丽新世界》,是在初中时读的《科幻世界》。后来读《娱乐至死》,波兹曼不止一次提到本书,促成了我对其阅读的机会。第一次阅读本书是在大学时代,距今也7、8年了。当时的震撼至今难忘,但也留下了诸多困惑和不解。在那时写下的书评最后,我曾写下一连串疑问: “...

首先说,看这本书来自neil.postman的《娱乐至死》,后来才知道其与奥威尔的《1984》,扎米亚京的《我们》并称为反乌托邦三部曲,在postman看来《美丽新世界》和《1984》描绘的是两个相反的未来,而在读过此书后,我觉得这种相反反而只是表面上的。内在来看,他们描绘的都是又精...

看到对《1984》的评论,让我想起另一本书《美丽新世界》。对1984里描述的令人窒息的独裁场景我已不担心,因为从上个世纪末开始,我们这一代人已经开始翻过那沉重的一页,中国人正头也不回地掠过《1984》的阴影。这本书在二十年前对国人会有振聋发聩的作用,但在半个多世纪后的...

設定還是很有意思的,但是對於the savage的一些苦行的做法非常不能理解,而且後麵仔細想想the savage的很多言論和思想不符閤邏輯
