Brave New 1984 World
For all you readers out there, here's an interesting infographic on links between George Orwell's 1984, Aldous Huxley's Brave New World, and modern society. Interestingly, most of the Orwellian links come from dictatorships in the Middle East, while Huxley's links are based in the U.S. I like the infographic itself for its clarity and usefulness as a teaching tool. I found this link today through Andrew Sullivan of the Daily Beast.
