"Huxley uses his erudite knowledge of human relations to compare our actual world with his prophetic fantasy of 1931. It is a frightening experience, indeed, to discover how much of his satirical prediction of a distant future became reality in so short a time." -- New York Times Book Review

"A message which, enforced by Mr. Huxley's seriousness and clear dialectic on dealing with social problems, we cannot ignore. . . . The last pages carry a somewhat tragic node about his misgivings whether man himself wishes to be saved." -- Time and Tide (London)

"A thought jabbing, terrifying book." -- Chicago Tribune

"Brilliantly written.... Should appeal to readers of all breeds." -- Kirkus Review
