The research was biased because the research never included lesbian and gay men that were not in therapy. However, as Zuriff points out (1997), when the non-patient homosex...

Brave New World Aldous Huxley

The Brave New World Of Technology
1,362 wordsWhen thinking of progress, most people think of advances in the scientific fields, believing that most discoveries and technologies are beneficial to society. Are these advances as beneficial as most people think? Brave New World presents a startling view of the future which on the surface appears almost comical. Yet humor was not the intention of Aldous Huxley when he wrote the book in the early 1930 's. Indeed Huxley's real message is very dark. His idea that in centuries to come, a one-world ...

Brave New World Designer Drugs
1,785 wordsBrave New World (1932) is one of the most insidious works of literature ever written. An exaggeration? Tragically, no. Brave New World has come to serve as the false symbol for any regime of universal happiness. For sure, Huxley was writing a satirical piece of fiction, not scientific prophecy. Hence to treat his writing as ill-conceived futurology rather than a work of great literature might seem to miss the point. Yet the knee-jerk response of Its Brave New World! to any blueprint for chemical...

The view that women are oppressed simply because men and most women too, have the wrong ideas about women can be too optimistic. Liberating women is seen as just a matter of persuasion and education, of explaining to men that they have got it wrong and that they really should share the housework and the top jobs because it would be more fair. History sho...
