In his 1932 classic dystopian novel Brave New World Aldous Huxley depicted a future society in thrall to science and regulated by sophisticated methods of social control. Nearly thirty years later in Brave New World Revisited Huxley checked the progress of his prophecies against reality and argued that many of his fictional fantasies had grown uncomfortably close to the truth. Brave New World Revisited includes Huxley's views on overpopulation propaganda advertising and government control and is an urgent and powerful appeal for the defence of individualism still alarmingly relevant today.

Brave New World Revisited.
New York: Harper & Brothers 1959. First edition of Huxley's classic work revisiting the premises of his iconic dystopian and prophetic novel published 28 years earlier and how this vision has come to fruition. Octavo original cloth. Boldly signed by Aldous Huxley on the half-title page. This title is rare signed as Huxley near the end of his life was nearly blind. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Rare and desirable signed. Published 28 years after Huxley’s nightmarish masterpiece Brave New World Revisited contains a concise analysis of how the author's grotesque vision of the future has in many ways already come to fruition. Huxley examines the ways in which Big Business and political propaganda have already established a "psychological slave trade" in addition to many other "Brave New World techniques" which increasingly threaten the freedom of the individual. Chapters include Propaganda in a Democratic Society The Arts of Selling Brainwashing Chemical Persuasion Hypnopaedia and Education For Freedom. Harper & Brothers hardcover
