Compare/contrast Brave New World To Today

BNW is a novel written by Aldoux Huxley. The novel Brave New World is like no other in fantasy and satire. It predicts a future overpowered by technology where the people have no religion. In this science fiction book, Huxley writes about the future in London. In the future people are produced by cloning in a world that is free of pain and suffering. Everyone is kept in a happy state and if their happiness is threatened then they take a drug to relax them and bring them back to their exultant life.

This is a possibility for our future, its just a matter of years. “More couples planning families are using technology that helps them choose the sex of their baby.” (Barnes) People are accepting the scientific advances and are already taking advantage of them.

There are many experts today who know the technique of cloning and are perfecting it every year.
