Phillip,
I like Brave New World for its description of the engineering of the human race. If you carefully analyze current happenings and recent evolutions in science, ethics, moral code, etc, I am afraid that we are already well advanced onto Huxley's nightmarish path, although it is much more subtle and difficult to grasp than the plain old reality of things such as "The Patriot Act" for example.
