can only be synthesised by poets: Encyclopaedias
and guides to knowledge cannot do it, for the good
reason that they affect only the intellectual
surface of a mans life. The lower layers, the core
of his being, they leave untouched. 1 I like this,
particularly the idea of the intellectual surface
- a mere surface, with much beyond it - and
combined with Jacobson's aforementioned theory, I
take this as my starting point: the idea that

The Brave New World Of Technology

When 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
