A brave new world, seen by a contemporary. The literary style, very dense and not necessarily easy to first on board, although this is fictionalized socio-political essay. The detailed analysis of where we tend to present, leads us to question ourselves about our natural socio-political recriminations of responsible citizens. The all-safe, all-comfort leads us straight to an area of the "inside" (socially correct), where the loss of the freedom to think, act and create is not required but the inherent fruit citizen will. This loss of creativity of the masses leads to social stability welcome to this extraterrestrial imaginary microcosm, compared to the omnipresent war on planet Earth become uninhabitable. A terrible look that the author addresses our current social policy, clean but bland. The self-abolition of the freedom that we give to ourselves. The end of evolution, progress, hope, utopias, scalability: an end of humanity? Damasio proposes a revolution that is not really tries to awaken our torpor of "soft" overfed and fed, without much belief in his coming. The Black Book of Humanity. Although darker than in 1984, or the best of worlds, two cult books he extends intelligently.
