HOW DO THINGS WORK IN PALA?   Until his last novel, Island, Aldous Huxley was known as a counter-utopia author. One of the best known novel, Brave New World, is based on the assumption that science can dominate the world and bring happiness to humanity. But it is not good enough for people according to Huxley.

The quote from the book describes the advanced thinking on the island.    "Read the Fiihrer's biography," said Dr. Robert. "A Peter Pan if ever there was one. Hopeless at school. Incapable either of competing or co-operating. Envying all the normally successful boys—and, because he envied, hating them and, to make himself feel better, despising them as inferior beings. Then came the time for puberty. But Adolf was sexually backward. Other boys made advances to girls, and the girls responded. Adolf was too shy, too uncertain of his manhood. And all the time incapable of steady work, at home only in the compensatory Other World of his f...
