This is a very old book... the cover price was $.95 Does that say anything?
From the cover.... It is as sparkling, as provocative, as brilliant, in the appropriate sense, as impressive as the day it was published. This is in part b/c its prophetic voice has remained surprisingly contenporary, both in its particular forecats & in its general tone of semi-serious alarm. But it is much more b/c the book succeeds as a sork of art. This is surely Aldous Huxley's best book.
