I was hoping for insight to what people of 1949 thought of the book, but the article is mainly summaries and excerpts. Nice refresher, though, of an important book.

1984 and Brave New World should paired reading, as they're two sides of the coin of social control. Elements of both books are used in today's society, and seeing them can make you a better citizen.
