I've picked up another book from my shelf before finishing (or attempting to) the other 8 or 9 books I have started recently.
I wanted to highlight Huxley's thoughts on the modern world nearly 100 years ago.....
He is talking of cars and travel in the second chapter and of the envy of the more powerful cars which zoom past his 10 horse powered car.
Then he ends with this paragraph, correlating the invention of cars and the health of humans.....
