Brave New World
2. Genetic engineering, conditioning, and use of soma. How are these elements used in the book and how can you relate them with real life.

The brave new world is a kind of newcivilization with a new form of life with some different aspects as the ones we’re related to. Some things change, like love, there’s supposed not to be love, anyone can date many people at the sametime and having “children” is forbidden for them, they live like they had no feeling which is totally unknown for us in our real world. As there are things different than in our society there are alsothings we can relate with our form of life.
The things we can relate are for example genetic engineering, in the book this people create the embryos depending on the kind of “worker” they need, that’sthe “normal” process of birth for them, while ours is the way around, we have a mother and a father while for them that doesn’t even exist and could be received as an insult. The process of birth hereworks in the following way: when someone needs a person with some special skill they prepare the embryo and experiment with them till they are ready and born. Then they are classified in differentcastes: Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta and Epsilon, being Alfa the highest and Epsilon the lowest. After that comes the conditioning, that’s when they are babies and the scientific of the Conditioning Centerplays a tape while they sleep for them to learn to be happy whatever they are, Alpha or Epsilon. It’s supposed to be a method to create a better living world because they love what they are, theirprofession, even if it’s a bad one. Then comes the thing about this “Soma”, it’s like the kind of “drug” they use, as I mentioned before, they have no feelings, there’s no love and no suffering, that’sall because of the soma. They use it as a way to escape from the feelings, feelings are taken as “bad” because they have an idea that it guides you to suffering, that’s why they inject themselves...
