HUXLEY'S FOREWORD TO BNW: summary
When it cones to bad behaviour, we should all try to avoid it in the future. The Brave New World is just like the old one, but we have to rewrite it ourselves. The most serious defect in the story is this; the Savage is offered only two alternatives, as insane life in Utopia, or the life of a primitive in an Indian Village, a life more human in some respects, but others hardly less queer and abnormal. When the book was written, humans were given a free will to choose between insanity, or lunacy. Savage chose insanity, which in the end caused him to commit suicide. Huxley feels like the choices are too limiting, and tbat sanity should be an option " a society composed of freely co-operating i dividuals devoted to the pursuit of sanity".
