Very good review. This is one of my favorite books. I read it about once a year, along with Orwell's 1984.

I think both Huxley and Orwell had a grasp on cause and effect, as well as the idea that nothing's new and everything works in cycles: the rise of freedom, the complacency that follows, the willingness to give up freedom for benefits, the suppression of freedom, the gaining strength of the ruling class, the end of freedom, the anger of the people, the uprising and revolution, back to freedom cycle.
