A Book Review On Brave New World
When reading the introductory passage about this book before starting it formally,the year of 1932 attracts my attention.As we all know,there was so much turmoil in Europe in the year of 1931,severe social problem ,such as depressing economy,high unemployment rate,the unrest of government,made the whole Europe a horrible place.In such a circumstance,it was spontaneous for people to dream for a better world and just judging from the name it’s quite easy to consider the book as a picture of an ideal world.However,as it is Brave New World is substantially not a brave world,but a even more horrible world.
In that world,material civilization is in high level and everything is automated.No one would ever worry about what to eat and wear;everyone is enjoying the most comfortable life.Seemed like a wonderful world,its true appearance can be thrilling.In that world, Economic prosperity and personal enjoy will become the only philosophy idea ,in the meantime ,the only religion of the whole society.
One of the biggest characteristics of that new world is unstable factors ranging from international warfare to personal illness that may influence the material production are all destroyed.For instance, soma,a kind of drug just like today ’s narcotic drugs ,is used widely.Here are several sentences from the book about soma."Glum, Marx, glum.What you
need is a gramme of soma. ”"All the advantages of Christianity and alcohol; none of their defects.""One cubic centimetre cures ten gloomy sentiments."(from Chapter 3)It ’s clear that people ’s emotion is controlled by drugs;almost everything is controlled by drugs.Never regard it as a good thing.On the contrary,it ’s terrifying,it means people lost their feelings and have no independent personality.To some extent,it just like turn human beings into machines.Another trait of the world is man is produced rather than be born.In a specific place named Human Incubation Center,following a specific procedure called Bokanovsky's Process,humans are produced by eggs and sperm.As a result ,a man’s fate is actually determined before he is “born ” by what conditions the operators provide.
Confronted such a crazy world,in spite of many advantages it have,everyone’s choice is likely to be the same with the Savage (Here savages means people comes from places except the brave new world) in the book:
“But I don't want comfort. I want God, I want poetry, I want real danger, I want freedom, I want goodness. I want sin.” “In fact,” said Mustapha Mond, “you're claiming the right to be unhappy.”
“All right then,”said the Savage defiantly,“I'm claiming the nght to be unhappy.”
“Not to mention the right to grow old and ugly and impotent; the right to have syphilis and cancer; the right to have too
little to eat; the right to be lousy; the right to live in constant apprehension of what may happen to-morrow; the right to catch typhoid; the right to be tortured by unspeakable pains of every kind.” There was along silence.
“I claim them all,”said the Savage at last.
However,to my disappointment,the savage finally killed himself in order to purify himself.Before he died,he said”I ate civilization.It poisoned me; I was defiled. And then I ate my own wickedness.”
You may consider nothing in the book makes real sense as the whole book is just the author ’s fancy.Nevertheless,yesterday ’s imagination is likely to become the reality of tomorrow;that is to say Brave New World is a book foreseeing future.With its unique significance of enlightenment,the book is bound to be taken seriously especially today when modern civilization,both economy and technology,is developing in an amazing rate.In the process of development,it’s never lose our human nature and instinct that should be bared in everyone ’s mind.Only in this way can we human create a real brave new world.

Brave New World is a novel written in 1931 by Aldous Huxley and published in 1932. Set in London of AD 2540 (632 A.F. – "After Ford" – in the book),
the novel anticipates developments in reproductive technology, sleep-learning, psychological manipulation, and classical conditioning that combine to profoundly change society. Huxley answered this book with a reassessment in an essay, (1958), and with Brave New World Revisited
Island (1962), his final novel.
In 1999, the Modern Library ranked Brave New World fifth on its list of
the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. In 2003, Robert McCrum writing for The Observer listed Brave New World number 53 in "the
top 100 greatest novels of all time", and the novel was listed at number 87 on the BBC's survey The Big Read.

Brave New World A novel by Aldous Huxley, first published in 1932.
《勇敢的新世界》 【英国】阿尔多斯?赫胥黎著，1932年首次出版。
《勇敢的新世界》于1932年出版，故事设在2540年世界国(World
State)的伦敦。
这本毁托邦小说(dystopian novel)无疑是人类思想库中的重磅作品，
深刻探索了个体与群体与社会之间的关系，对现代进步思想体系的
形成具有深远影响。正因为如此，一提此书，便有人危襟正坐，满
嘴术语，未来主义呀、福特主义呀、佛洛依德呀、巴甫洛夫呀，好
像只有满腹经纶的人才能看懂。其实不然，这本书中提出的种种质
疑，与我们现代人的生活密切相关。
什么是幸福,什么是爱,什么是文明,什么是秩序,什么是和谐,
这些，是我们每一个普通人都免不了偶尔思考的问题。赫胥黎将这
些问题置于极限条件，使我们不得不面对一个更为根本的问题:我
们究竟应该根据什么原则来建造我们的社会,
我无意在此介绍故事的梗概，有兴趣的读者直接点击阅读就好，我只想说一下此书的书名和书中人物的姓名。
书名取自莎士比亚正剧《暴风雨》(Tempest, 1610,1611)。米兰达从小和父亲被流放
到荒岛，在与世隔绝的环境长大，直到一场暴风雨将一只船带到小岛，米兰达才首
次见到年轻英俊的男子。天真的米兰达以为世界上的男子都是美好的，惊叹道——
O wonder!
How many goodly creatures are there here! How beauteous mankind is!
O brave new world! That has such people in it!
此书国内通常译为《美丽的新世界》，丢失了原辞中的多重意味，实在是遗憾。
Brave 不是美丽的美丽，而是生机勃勃、丰富多彩的美丽，译成《美丽的新世
界》，赫胥黎的讥讽本意全都不见了。

范文四：赫胥黎《美丽新世界》
赫胥黎《美丽新世界》读后感
赫胥黎的《美丽新世界》是一本看了后觉得有些压抑的书，书本描绘了一个能称为“神奇”的未来世界，由于科学技术的发展，在这个世界里面，一个人从出生到死亡都受着控制：从胚胎到出生前，是在试管里培育的，在试管里，就被给予了身份的标识；出生后，接受睡眠教育；工作，生活，将按照固定的模式。
整个社会在我们看来暗淡无光，极其恐怖，“母亲”的称呼被当作耻辱，因为孩子的培育不是靠母体，而是靠试管，胚胎的成长，靠的是机械的添加日照，营养剂；孩童时期，孩子们接受睡眠教育，通过重复养成思维定势，怨恨什么，爱什么都通过重复的播音形成；以后干什么事情，从事什么职业按照等级早就固定好了，只需要在那个固定的岗位上机械化的操作即可。而活在世界里面的人却自得其所，干着从出生之前就已经赋予的工作，没有反抗，只有快乐，无尽的快乐，偶尔的不快，也被麻醉剂所抚平。
与之相对的一个世界，是一个被称为野蛮世界的地方，里面还保存着部分原始的东西，母体孕育生命，爱欲自然表达，伦理规范依然存在，宗教信仰仍然占统治地位。从我们的当代眼光来看，这个世界尽管略显落后，但和新世界相比，似乎多了些人性。
作为反乌托邦的代表作，赫胥黎构建了一个来自野蛮世界但向往新世界的人，这个人最终又被新世界迫害而死。作者通过描写“野蛮世界”与“美丽新世界”的矛盾冲突，在书中对高度发达的，机械化的社会做了批判，具体表现在以下几点：
唯技术论的荒谬。赫胥黎要表达的正是这样的思想，技术诚然带来了进步，但是过分的依赖技术，造成的是人的理性的丧失。看似美丽的新世界，正是一个技术至上的社会。人们追求的社会稳定，是通过技术，规定人的一生，限制人的一切权利，控制人的自然欲望来造成的。从本质上看，新世界和专制社会在是一样的，试图通过剥夺人的自然权利，营造一元社会。但事实上，这种寻求稳定的方式是不可能存在的，一个利益多元化的社会，只能是一种动态的稳定，在协商中寻求平衡。
人的自由是至高无上的。在新世界中，人的一切言行都是受控制的，不能有异于社会的思想，更不能自由的表达思想。那些对现存新世界持有反对意见的人，总是被周围的人所鄙视，被要求吃麻醉剂，因为麻醉剂能缓解反动的思想，把人固定在虚幻的快乐中。在描写这种冲突时，作者构建了两种不同结局的人，一个是中心主任，他是一个怀有新思想的人又害怕被现存制度抛弃的人，最终，他还
是退缩了，另一个是以穆斯塔法和约翰为代表的，既对现存制度不满，又敢于站出来表达异议的人，他们换来了最终的自由。不过，因为逃脱不了来自新世界的人们的打扰，也摆脱自己背叛旧社会的内疚，约翰还是自杀了。作者安排约翰的命运以死亡结束，应该是对这样一个近乎变态的新社会的强烈讽刺。
社会离不开道德的约束。赫胥黎所描绘的新世界是一个不靠道德，仅仅靠程序约束的社会。在新世界，性欲代替了爱欲，可以自由的宣泄，人们彼此相属，谁和谁都可以发生关系。这是如此的荒诞，所以孩童被教导着玩找拉链的游戏，列宁娜和许多的人发生了关系，当他爱上约翰时，又是毫无顾忌的像占有约翰，甚至在约翰面前脱光了衣服。而在约翰所处的旧世界，人们只能从一而终。约翰的母亲，这个从新世界来的女人，和野蛮世界的很多男人发生关系，受到了女人们的鄙视和殴打。约翰本人也认为，对一个女孩的追求，要靠劳动，要经受考验，才是真正的男人，是值得信赖的爱情。这种传统的道德观念是值得肯定的。很讽刺的是，这种传统的道德观在新世界的环境下遭遇了困境。约翰爱着列宁娜，但不能接受列宁娜的爱情观，所以他给自己设计了一个圈套，并在自己设计的圈套中选择了死亡——一边骂列宁娜是“婊子”，一边又想着她的肉体。欲望是应该正常表达的，单纯为了肉欲的释放，忽视了爱的存在，
超越了道德的界限，是可悲的，如新世界，而过分压制的爱欲，如约翰，也是不健康的。
宗教观——宗教是心灵的寄托。新世界是一个虚幻的，没有信仰的世界，人们遭受困苦的时候，靠的是唆麻。与这种靠麻醉剂来消极躲避的方式相比，宗教算是一种更现实，更高级的信仰。承认宗教的前提是肯定人忍受苦难的权力，哪怕“眼泪也是需要的”。在约翰与总统的对话中，作者也表达了自己的宗教观：宗教情绪随着年龄增长而增长，能够让灵魂愉悦，弥补人们在其他方面的损失。
