GREAT RECOMMENDATIONS....
A Clockwork Orange is what many of the psychologists working for a certain organization that shall remain nameless(BAN) predicted would be the final outcome of their strategies.
The disassociation of the individual. Where he becomes the entirety of society for himself. Our current electronic age, where most humans interact through electronic media, is thought to signify that.
It predicts a very violent welfare state - SOUND FAMILIAR??
Fred Emery wrote a book "Futures We Are In" (1975) that lay it all out if curious.....
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 9204853 If you read We, there's a really spooky bit that compares individual consciousness to a sickness. Like how you only are aware of your eye if there's something in it, or you are only aware of your big toe or some other body part if you've injured it. It's pretty trippy. And incredibly well-written, almost poetic. Quoting: D-503 Will check it out....THANKS!!!! I read WAYYYY too much.......Says my wife!!!
