Book Description:
‘A brilliant tour de force, Brave New World may be read as a grave warning of the pitfalls that await uncontrolled scientific advance.’ Observer
‘Equally a denunciation of capitalism and communism, so far as they discourage man from thinking freely, Brave New World is one of the most important books to have been published since the war.’ Daily Telelgraph

Extra-special futuristic 3D edition! Each book comes with 3D glasses!
