BRAVER NEW WORLD ORDER

Review/Essay inspired by “Brave New World” (1932) by Aldous Huxley


© H. J. Spencer [12Aug.2020] 5,000 words (8 pages)

ABSTRACT
This was Huxley's fifth novel but his first dystopian science fiction attempt. The story is set in a future
fictitious One World State, whose citizens are environmentally engineered into an intelligence-based
social hierarchy based on advanced technology in reproduction, sleep-learning with psychological
manipulation through classical conditioning. The essay component here views this novel as an allegory
of today's world being panicked into a radical 'Restart' into a promised utopia by the New World Order.
Huxley was keenly aware of the distinction between science and technology and it is the misuse of new
scientific knowledge in the form of dangerous technology that he was alerting us, especially in the
hands of an all powerful technocratic state that knew how to manipulate its citizens through psychology
rather than brute terror, as Orwell portrayed in the other famous dystopian novel, 1984. This review
checks Huxley's predictions; the essay concludes with the reviewer's comparable predictions for 2032.
AUTHOR'S BIOGRAPHY
Aldous Huxley (26 July 1894 - 22 Nov. 1963) was an English writer and philosopher, who authored
nearly 50 books (novels and non-fiction, plus essays and poems). He was born into the prominent
Huxley family; his grandfather was the zoologist and comparative anatomist, Thomas Henry Huxley,
(1825-1895) who became notorious as "Darwin's Bulldog". Aldous had two famous brothers, Julian and
Andrew, who both became outstanding biologists. He was taught by his mother at her Hillside School
until 1908 when she became terminally ill and died (his father later remarried). Aldous transferred to
Eton College; he became half-blind in 1911 but recovered within 8 years. He entered Balliol College,
Oxford in 1913 to study English Literature, graduating in 1916 with a BA (First Class Honours). He
then taught French poorly at Eton (Orwell was his pupil). During the 1920s, he worked in an advanced
chemical plant in northeast England - an experience that later influenced this world famous novel.
Aldous married Maria Nys (a Belgian lady) in 1919; they had one child, Matthew in 1920; he had a
career as an author, anthropologist and epidemiologist, dying in 2005. Maria died of cancer in 1955,
Aldous lived in Italy and France but sensing a new war coming, moved to Los Angeles in 1937. He
died from laryngeal cancer, assisted by an LSD injection. In 1956, Huxley married Laura Archera
(1911–2007), also an author, as well as a violinist and psychotherapist. She wrote This Timeless
Moment, a biography of Huxley. By the end of his life, Aldous Huxley was widely acknowledged as
one of the foremost intellectuals of his time. He was nominated seven times for the Nobel Prize in
Literature and was elected in 1962 Companion of Literature by the Royal Society of Literature in 1962.

1. INTRODUCTION
Huxley's novel now sits at #5 in Amazon modern fiction; perhaps, more people today recognize the era
that he was trying to satirize when he wrote it in 1931. Both he and George Orwell sensed, as artists,
that Europe was heading for a lot of trouble due to the nature of the modern world. Brave New World
is Aldous Huxley’s 1932 dystopian novel set in a technocratic World State, an industrial society that
rests on the assigned values of community, identity and stability. The novel follows two principal
characters: first a disgruntled Insider, then an Outsider as they question the tenets of the World State, a
place where people live in a baseline-mode of superficial happiness in order to avoid dealing with the
truth of their artificial lives. The novel examines a unified global society that revolves around science
and efficiency, emerging after a nine-year global conflict. In this society, emotions and individuality
are conditioned out of children at a young age so there are no lasting relationships.
2. BRAVE NEW WORLD
2.1 PLOT SUMMARY
The story begins with three expository chapters describing the futuristic society of World State. In this
society marriage, family and procreation have been eliminated as babies are genetically engineered and
grown in bottles. Citizens are programmed to be productive and complaisant through a combination of
biological manipulation, psychological and drug conditioning. To emphasize the satire, the date is now
AF632 (or 2540 AD), where AF stands for 'after Ford' to venerate Henry Ford's invention of the
standard assembly line for his Model-T automobile. The first scene opens at the Central London
Hatchery and Conditioning Centre, where children are created outside the womb and cloned in order to
increase the population. This introduces the class system of this world, where citizens are sorted while
still embryos existing within tubes and incubators; they are provided with differing amounts of organic
chemicals in order to condition them into predetermined classes. Embryos destined for the higher
classes get chemicals to perfect them both physically and mentally, whereas those of the lower classes
are altered to be imperfect in those respects. These classes (in order from highest to lowest) are Alpha,
Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Epsilon. The Alphas are bred to be leaders, while the Epsilons are bred to be
menial labourers; Betas are technicians. Alphas are smart, tall and muscular; Epsilons short, dumb and
ugly. The lower castes are grown in batches, so that 100 Epsilons are all exact copies of one another.

The two principal characters are Lenina Crowne (a fetal technologist and a B+) and Bernard Marx (an
A+) an administrative assistant to the Director of the H&C Centre. The plot revolves around a trip by
these two to a Reservation in New Mexico, where native Americans still survive as primitives as a zoo
(for the amusement of civilized visitors) living in desperate poverty, aging naturally with cruel old
cultures. On the visit, two white 'savages' are spotted: a mother (Linda) and her son (John). It turns out
that Linda had been abandoned there by the nasty Director 30 years ago to hide the Director's sexual
indiscretion. John tells them his memories of growing up on the reservation with Linda, where he
experienced maternal love and the joy of reading Shakespeare and learning skills, but also the pain of
ostracism as being different. Linda, still effectively brainwashed by her World State upbringing, speaks
rapturously of her time in World State, so eagerly accepts Bernard’s offer to bring her home. Back at
World State, Marx presents Linda and John to the Director and John (the son the Director never knew
he had) calls the Director “father.” This provokes the Director’s resignation, as procreation between
persons is outlawed, and his crime has been exposed. John is kept in the “brave new world,” as he calls
it, as a sort of experiment by Mustapha Mond - the local Dictator (one of ten). Linda, however, is sent
to a hospital because of her addiction to “soma” - a drug used by citizens to feel calmer. She eventually
dies because of it; this causes John to go on an anti-soma rampage in the hallway of the hospital.

Bernard enjoys momentary popularity, as the other alphas who once shunned him, now clamor for time
with John. Bernard’s dissatisfactions melt away as he begins to feel powerful and important. He is
shown to be a rather shallow person as is Lenina, who wants to act like everyone else and enjoy the
same activities without thinking or talking too much; she is mostly content to follow the rules, but
questions the government-enforced promiscuity in the sexually-obsessed society. Now, John emerges
as the novel’s protagonist at this point, as he yearns for an emotional relationship with Lenina who is
very keen: taking off her clothes, trying to embrace him, but John flies into a rage as he has adopted the
savage's morality of no-sex before marriage, so he beats her, showing the dark, dangerous side of
human emotions and arbitrary morality.

The climax of the novel occurs when Linda dies and John, deranged by grief, tries to stage a revolution.
Here, Bernard appears entirely unsympathetic with his cowardice and lack of morality. Mond then
exiles Bernard to an offshore island prison but wants an in-depth discussion with John on religion,
literature and art. Despite this great chat, Mustapha wants to continue the social experiment. John
becomes increasingly angry with this society, until eventually he runs away to a remote lighthouse to
live in humble isolation. He is able to evade tourists and reporters for a while but eventually they find
him and gawk as he engages in the native tradition of self-flagellation. Crowds descend from
helicopters to witness the spectacle. The intensity of the crowd increases when John whips not only
himself but a woman as well, who is implied to be Lenina. John is soon overcome with passion and,
after coming under the influence of soma, he falls asleep. The next morning, appalled at his complicity
in the system, he hangs himself.
2.2 HISTORICAL CONTEXT
Brave New World was written between the two World Wars, when the aeroplane, automobile and radio
had been invented: heralding an era of technological optimism in Europe and the U.S.A. Huxley
picked up on such optimism and created the dystopian world of his novel, so as to criticize it. Much of
the anxiety that drives Brave New World can be traced to a widespread belief in technology as a remedy
for problems caused by disease and war (an updated Frankenstein). Unlike his fellow citizens, Huxley
felt that such a reliance was naive so he decided to challenge these ideas by imagining them taken to
their extremes, in a future based on possible scientific innovations (i.e. "science fiction").
2.3 LITERARY ALLUSIONS
The clearest literary influence on Brave New World can be intuited from the title, which comes from a
line in Shakespeare's play: The Tempest, a play preoccupied with what it means to build a new society.
John is himself an echo of the play’s character Caliban, who is described as a “savage.” Huxley also
signals the Bard of Avon’s influence through John’s education on the reservation, where the curriculum
consists primarily of the works of Shakespeare. Some literary critics considered Brave New World to
be ultimately, a futuristic parody of The Tempest.
2.4 HUXLEY's AFTERWORD
My paperback edition appeared in 1977 so it contains an extra ten page Foreword (written in 1946).
Huxley begins by explaining why he has resisted the temptation to rewrite or improve the original. He
does admit to one literary mistake (simplifying the story) by offering John only two choices when he is
brought to London: an insane life in Utopia or return to life in a primitive village. He now sees this as
the false choice faced by most adults in Europe (he took the third choice - travelling around the world).
Huxley admits that it is the threat of biological science to human happiness that was his major theme.
He says that Conservative Elites wish to keep their privileges, so anticipates further centralized control
by getting people to love their slavery through propaganda and drugs; all within a century.

2.5 INITIAL RECEPTION


The reception of Brave New World on its publication was primarily negative. Many were offended by
the nature of Huxley’s future; very few understood the novel’s philosophical implications. Very many
schools and libraries all over the world banned the novel and even today it remains on lists of censored
books. Parents and teachers argue that the novel’s themes of promiscuity, self-harm and its overall
negativity are not suitable for children. However, many readers are still influenced by the novel’s take
on dystopia, which forces the reader to ponder: Can there be a perfect world with no poverty, sickness,
or sadness (what would society be missing)? This question and the answers provided by Huxley in
Brave New World are, perhaps, the reason the novel continues to resonate. It's resonance with today's
world certainly inspired this essay.
2.7 TECHNOLOGY PREDICTIONS
It is important to recognize the distinction between science and technology; a distinction that Huxley
was well aware of; this will be subject of a later essay. Whereas the WorldState talks about progress
and science, what it really means is the bettering of technology, not increased scientific exploration and
experimentation. The state uses science as a means to build technology that can create a seamless,
happy, superficial world through things such as the “feelies”: the best we have so far are 3D movies.
The WorldState censors and limits science since it sees the fundamental basis behind science, the
search for truth, as threatening the State’s control. The State’s focus on happiness and stability means
that it uses the results of scientific research, inasmuch as they contribute to technologies of control, but
does not support science itself. The focus on the drug 'soma' was a good prediction of how people wish
to alter their minds (alcohol earlier); now more with cocaine and opioids.

The key technology supporting the novel is inspired by biology: this was a smart move by Huxley (who
had been sensitized to it by his biology-centered family) and was unfamiliar to most people (even many
scientists at that time). Physics was the central science prior to 1950 and its key feature was electricity
that Mary Shelley made the focus of her earlier science-warning novel (Frankenstein) but still alluded
to its role in biology (making life). This anticipated the biochemical revolution that was born in the
1950s with the attention focused on DNA. Even though cloning is proving difficult, today many genetic
engineering projects are trying to manipulate non-natural forms of life - with unknown consequences.
We do have some assistance in artificial insemination techniques but we are mainly still relying on
"old-fashioned" methods for making children. Huxley was also warning about the power of continuous
chemical engineering; that has altered the modern world through oil, plastics and pharmaceuticals.
2.8 SOCIOLOGY PREDICTIONS
It is important to understand that Brave New World is not simply a warning about what could happen to
society if things go wrong, it is also a satire of the society in which Huxley existed in 1932, and which
largely still exists today. While the attitudes and actions of WorldState citizens at first appear bizarre,
cruel, or scandalous; many clues point to the conclusion that the WorldState is simply an extreme—but
logically developed—version of our society’s economic values, in which individual happiness is
defined as the ability to satisfy wants while success as a society is equated with economic growth and
prosperity. We have certainly created a consumer-based economy that has spread its values across the
whole world. It seems clear enough from Mond’s argument that happiness refers to the immediate
gratification of every citizen’s desire for food, sex, drugs, nice clothes and other consumer items.
Truth, human values and individuality thus become entwined in the novel’s thematic structure.
Communal values, in the novel, have not yet defeated competitive individualism in today's world.

2.9 POLITICAL PREDICTIONS


Huxley's future world (unlike 1984) appears to be one where war has been abolished, after a nine-year
war in the distant past that may have triggered a need for a single, global government - the one
WorldState divided into ten regions. Unaware of developments in nuclear physics in the 1930s, Huxley
failed (like most contemporary prophets) to anticipate nuclear weapons that might abolish mankind as
well as war. Like George Orwell’s 1984, this novel depicts a dystopia in which an all-powerful state
controls the behaviours and actions of its people, in order to preserve its own stability and power. But a
major difference between the two is that, whereas in 1984 control is maintained by constant
government surveillance, secret police and torture; power in Brave New World is maintained through
technological interventions that start before birth and last until death; they actually change what people
want. The government of 1984 maintains power through force and intimidation. The government of
Brave New World retains control by making its citizens so happy and superficially fulfilled that they
don’t care about their personal freedom. In short, Huxley's view was more accurate for the
democracies, where stability is maintained through soporific TV and psychological manipulations of
the public through sports, medical fears and transcendent fears of the 'strange' others (in Asia). There is
no need for 'hypnopaedic' brain-washing of the new-born in "Conditioning Centers": repetitive
messaging to the semi-soporific viewers on their couches achieves similar results. In Brave New World
the consequences of state control are a loss of dignity, morals, values and emotions—in short, a loss of
humanity. We continue to deceive ourselves that we still retain our core humanity, even though mental
health (especially depression) is a broader problem than physical disease, in the modern world.
3. BRAVER NEW WORLD ORDER
3.1 PREDICTIONS: not fictions
This final section was inspired by Huxley's attempt to imagine a fictitious future in about 600 years
time (a nice, safe forecast). Here, I take a greater risk and choose a much closer forecast date of 2032,
exactly 100 years from the original publication date of Brave New World. Perhaps, more foolishly I
have chosen such a closer forecast date (or "Braver") deliberately, so I might be confronted with the
failure of my own predictions (not Huxley 'science' fictions) before I die; assuming that the world's
wild Tribal Nationalisms have not wrecked civilization before then [intelligence makes good forecasts].

I am expecting a major Shift in World History as a result of the Covid-19 Panic that I believe has been
set in motion by an incredibly clever conspiracy between some of today's ruling elites and the vast
numbers of technocrats, who operate the world today. I define a member of the elite as a person whose
family directly controls at least one-percent of the world's economic resources [see Politics below] -
these correspond to Huxley's Alphas. The beta technocrats are almost everyone who has survived
modern education and believes that "Statistics are Important" [not the vaguer slogan of "Believing in
Science" that is more a remnant of medieval religious wars]. I emphasize statistics as the widest
implication of the Triumph of Mathematics: where Quantity beats Quality every time, in the mistaken
view that objectivity is more important than subjectivity. One only has to watch the TV Nightly-News
to see how often numbers become the focus of the story; qualitative aspects shrink away even when
there is NO evidence for the accuracy or relevance of the numbers being presented; experts and pundits
are notorious for repeating numbers, until they take on a life of their own. The two worst instances are
Sports [where winning - the larger number - is everything] and medical statistics, where supposedly the
results of unsubstantiated medical Tests ["cases"] get subtlety converted to "infections" and finally to
viral deaths [without any scientific audits]; increasing fear of death amongst the general population.

3.2 GLOBAL POLITICS: NEW WORLD ORDER


In the next 10 years, I expect the world's nations to aggregate into Three Blocks. (the 'Tri-World'). The
First-Block will be an extended version of NATO, which Russia will join: attempting to block the
Second-Block of China and India and the uncontrolled mass migrations from the disorganized Third
Block of Africa and any nation with significant natural resources, vast populations of the starving
impoverished, whose leaders keep making short-term 'deals' with the two major blocks, while
governments keep changing after perennial civil wars.
3.2.1 CHINESE/INDIAN POLITICS
I predict that there will be a military Coup d'État in India, where the Army leadership (down to the level
of colonels) will be sick of the internecine religious squabbles dividing the country (especially by old
and corrupt Hindu nationalists) will take over the country and impose a technocratic style revolution -
as Kemal Atatürk did in Turkey in 1923. Rather, than risk war, the pragmatic Chinese leadership (still
nominally the Communist Party) will sign a Perpetual Peace Pact, designed to stop the exploitation of
both their populations from western capitalists. They will share nuclear/ICBM submarine technology
to block any threats from the First Block. Pakistan may find itself in the Third-Block.
3.2.2 WESTERN POLITICS
I view western financial elites as the prime movers for a New-World-Order as like all elites they have
always tried to retain wealth and privilege through the generations of their families, like Hapsburgs,
Bourbons, 'Windsors', etc. I see them controlling the Technocratic leaders (as well as their military) to
achieve these goals. Medical threats and electronic toys will be central to their strategy in controlling
the population, who will still believe that they live in a democracy because regular elections will be
held to change the Public Puppets, who will follow the diktats of the New-Aristocrats (the Elites).
3.3 TECHNOLOGY
It is because I see East Asia Redux as the phoenix of civilization in the future [see my EastNotWest
essay] as millions of smart young people will eagerly pursue education and modernism that will drive
technology and hence economics in the future Technocratic world; so I will discuss them first.
3.3.1 CHINESE/INDIAN TECHNOLOGY
Modern Indian society has benefited from adopting the English language from its prior masters [the
British Empire - see Britannia]. They have benefited directly from outsourcing professional and many
technical services from the USA and the UK, where ongoing competitive pressures encouraged seeking
lower-cost solutions. The excellent Indian technology institutes have produced many graduates able to
work in western technology companies, using temporary work permits. More of these entrepreneurial
technicians have returned to India to establish successful hi-tech companies. India's economy will grow,
like China's, by converting from primitive agriculture to advanced manufacturing industries. China will
continue to encourage its aggressive businessmen to continue their successful path to modernism while
cutting advantageous deals with poor Third World countries, in exchange for food and raw materials.
3.3.2 WESTERN TECHNOLOGY
Western capitalists will realize that locking up their capital in foreign factories that may be nationalized
is not a viable long-term strategy but they will neither wish to lock up capital in local factories that can
be held hostage by militant workers. So, I expect big capital to be either played in financial casinos
(i.e. speculative stock markets) or invested in short-term automation (robot) projects that replace
humans with artificial intelligence (AI) controlled machines; machines making machines. A few people
will still be needed to deliver food and toys (perhaps by airborne drones). Others will return to being
servants to the elite or as armed private bodyguards. Most new technology will be imported from
China / India, as few westerners will be motivated enough to learn to be innovators.

7

3.3.3 THIRD-WORLD TECHNOLOGY


The Third Block will not be innovators or capitalists (who will have fled to Block-One). There may be
some low-cost test projects using local unskilled labor but many poor people will be bribed to test out
new pharmaceuticals that will have to shown to be safe before being used in the other blocks.
3.4 GLOBAL ECONOMICS
Although we know how to solve the production issues for necessities, there will still be competition for
more, like today, so in the short-term (say 50 years) the methods of global economics are unlikely to
change but the problems of poverty will severely increase; the resulting starvation will kill millions and
increase the pressure to migrate - or revert to violence to steal on an international scale as migration
will be dramatically curtailed. Capitalists will persist until governments realize that the state (the
largest corporation in every country) can fund all major investments. The ultimate competition will be
between the few asset-owners and the top technocrats, who will be jealous of the Aristocrats' privileges.
3.4.1 CHINESE/INDIAN ECONOMICS
In both countries, businessmen will be encouraged to innovate with technology (all patents owned by
the government) that may be copied (without fee or license from the West). Widespread raising of
public health and education, paid by taxes on the wealthy, who will have to stay, as their loyalties will
be suspect elsewhere (like the imprisoned Japanese in the U.S.A. and Canada in World War II);
increasing Death Taxes will gradually eliminate this economic class, as the technocratic elite seize total
control. China will encourage the expansion of Social-Credit as a measure of individual contribution so
that cash tokens (notes and coins) will be abolished, with all transactions becoming purely electronic.
3.4.2 WESTERN ECONOMICS
As AI driven automation expands through modern economies, most workers (non-technocrats) will find
themselves unemployed and will be given a basic monthly state income just sufficient to buy food and
cheap rental accommodation for a family that will be limited to two children. Employed people will be
taxed strongly (at least 50%) to finance this state-wide communalism (as in Scandinavia). There will
be much tighter financial controls between countries (with severe penalties for avoidance). This will
become easier as cash is abolished. Ultimately, all banks will become state-branches to further control
the population. Eventually, western nations will adopt Chinese solutions, as being more "efficient".
3.5 SOCIOLOGY
If the Covid Conspiracy is successful (as I expect) then I predict the following sequence of events to
occur in most modern western societies - my crystal ball fails me with China.
3.5.1 VIRUSES
Public manipulation will be driven by medical scares: viral threats are brilliant, as they are so poorly
understood and so small as to limit research to well-funded government scientific institutes. The media
will continue to broadcast scary stories, as they will see themselves as part of the technocratic elite.
3.5.2 CONFORMISTS
Each new stage will be led by society's most conformist employees: nurses and the police. They will
confirm the medical necessities and agree that "for public health" people must be made to conform. We
have seen the early stages already with the "Guidelines" for social distancing, business shut-downs and
wearing masks.
3.5.3 VACCINATIONS
As masks will be proven to be "inadequate", the public will be told that a new vaccination has been
proven to work; so eventually everyone will have to prove that they have been vaccinated. This will be
achieved by super-miniaturization of Radio-Frequency Identification Chips (RFIDs) into MIDs.

7
8

Today RFIDs are as small as a single grain of rice. Scanners will be used at store entrances to confirm
that only "chipped" citizens have the Mark of the Beast ("Revelations - chapter 13) permitting access.
The MIDs will be small enough to be part of the vaccination process; at first, they simply indicate date
of the vaccination but later, as annual 'booster' shots are needed, then a permanent, personal global ID #
will be included; this will also be administered to infants with their compulsory first vaccinations.
3.5.4 REBELS
Sweeps will be organized at transit stations (all private automobiles will be banned, except for
limousines for the elites), with the public going through airport-like security scanners. Chipless-rebels
will be arrested immediately and locked away in remote 'Rehabilitation Camps' (for life), along with
recidivist criminals, transferred from regular prisons that will be closed or converted to "Care" Homes.
3.5.5 MONEY
Ultimately, Block-One governments will follow China and abolish ALL money: first retail cash and
then savings. Everyone will be given a dynamic Social-Credit score based on the 'value' of the job, as
defined by some Ministry officials. Initially, one's savings may be taken and used to increase one's SC
score. This will solve the problem of tax-evasion, money-laundering and help to strip the wealth away
from the financial elite that is probably hidden abroad today in tax-havens.
3.5.6 US CIVIL WARS
The U.S.A. is an anomaly in the modern world; never invaded but culturally divided along Value-Lines
and Racial/Ethnic divisions. Its bizarre Constitution was a compromise between the Northern
Merchants and the Southern (Landed) Aristocrats to break away from English monarchy and control.
The distorted voting system to empower the smaller states and the privileges of the whites has meant
that they have effectively got an elected King - even more crazy than George III. So many Americans
have retained their old religious loyalties that modernism (and Technocracy) has not triumphed in this
country. It may devolve to another Civil War to resolve this conflict. If the Religious Whites are
victorious then they may even try for an Apartheid Regime first expelling all Blacks to Africa and then
maybe all non-whites. These moves would destroy the American Empire and dramatically reduce its
role in the world.
4. CONCLUSIONS
4.1 BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS
This was the first time I actually read Huxley's Brave New World ; it certainly inspired me to write this
essay. However, I was deeply disappointed with the book. I found its scientific context unconvincing,
while the plot was too contrived, its the characters were wooden and unappealing. Overall, I would not
recommend anyone today reading the book; life is too short, pick one's books carefully; essays easier.
4.2 FUTURE PREDICTIONS (NWO)
Like Huxley's Brave New World that projected his own era of the ominous 1930s into a distant
dystopia, this essay has projected today's frightful world into a soon to appear horrendous dystopia: one
where individuality will also disappear as a reduced global population are controlled in a New World
Order that has been hinted at by the elites since 2000. Can such a Tri-Block world appear? Sadly, I
think yes; there are too many today who would justify the Transition on grounds of limiting Global
Warming, improved National Security and guaranteed personal safety. How stable would such societies
be? Well, technology and psychology have converged to make this nightmare very durable. Do I
recommend such a world? Certainly not. It is inhuman and reflects the arrogance of intellectuals who
have oppressed mankind since the first civilizations. It's only positive is that it may eliminate the Third
World War: preserving humanity to perhaps evolve to a better type of social animal: one can only hope.
