Editorial review

In the World State of 632 A.F. (After Ford), human beings are decanted from bottles, conditioned into rigid social castes, and kept docile by sex, soma, and entertainment. Into this society stumbles 'John the Savage' — and the novel becomes a study in what 'happiness' is allowed to cost.
