Write-Up Out Of Books Ends and Means (سلسلة الفكر الحديث)

I have read this book twice. One of my top 3 favorite books of all time.

Ends and Means was published in 1937 in the run up to World War II; this means some of its ideas are very outdated. That said, it is also fascinating. Its description of the rise of dictators and nationalism and what Huxley correctly thought to be the run up to war has some unnerving parallels with the global situation in 2018.

It's a good idea to read this as a companion to Huxley's 1936 novel, Eyeless in Gaza. If the chapter on war does not turn you into a pacifist, I don't know what will. Also the chapter on Decentralization & self-government made me get serious about anarchism.

More required reading. Everything and everybody will end, so why be mean while we are all together?
