In 1958, Aldous Huxley 's " BRAVE NEW WORLD REVISITED " came out ( I got a copy as a Christmas present ), wherein he presents what he saw as the world's rushing forward , rapidly, into his nightmare vision of the future. He rants and raves about overpopulation, talks about the shame it is, that modern marvels have made possible for the disabled, mentally retarded, etc. to live into adulthood and beyond ( Fabian eugenic theory subtlly interjected rather covertly here ), and his discussions of all forms of propaganda , makes him sound as though he is against it; but you have to reread his comments, in order to see where he's actually going with this little tirade.
Though Huxley quotes Jefferson ( he sounds quite like a FR Libertarian ! LOL ) , one must always remember his background and look closely at the points that he is actually making in this slim volume.
