Reviews
Poller's outstanding new critical biography of Aldous Huxley will appeal to a wide audience. Sensibly priced, and with a good number of images, it devotes equal amounts of space to both the man and his oeuvre. Huxley himself is brought vividly to life, and each of his major works receives a detailed--and at times innovative--critical appraisal. . . . This exemplary contribution to Reaktion's Critical Lives series is beautifully written, as well as being witty and informative--hallmarks of all good biographies., Poller, in his new biography of Aldous Huxley, does the impossible. He covers the ground revealed previously by other scholars, but also manages to add fresh details, knowledgeable insights, and astute critiques--and in far fewer pages than in any earlier treatments. This book is not only a marvel of concise and readable scholarship but a welcome and necessary update of the life of one of the twentieth century's most provocative intellectuals., Poller's Aldous Huxley is not just an engagingly written introduction to the life and work; this well-researched and wide-ranging critical biography provides many fresh insights into the less familiar aspects of Huxley's oeuvre, such as Eastern religions, parapsychology, and ecology. An outstanding book.

Synopsis
Aldous Huxley was one of the twentieth century's most prescient thinkers. This new biography is a rich and lucid account that charts the different phases of Huxley's career: from the early satirist who depicted the glamorous despair of the postwar generation, to the committed pacifist of the 1930s, the spiritual seeker of the 1940s, the psychedelic sage of the 1950s - who affirmed the spiritual potential of mescaline and LSD - to the New Age prophet of Island . While Huxley is still best known as the author of Brave New World , Poller argues that it is The Perennial Philosophy , The Doors of Perception and Island - Huxley's blueprint for a utopian society - that have had the most cultural impact., "An outstanding book."--James Sexton "A welcome and necessary update of the life of one of the twentieth century's most provocative intellectuals."--Dana Sawyer A rich and lucid account of Aldous Huxley's life and work.

- m***4 (1604)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufLeaving positive feedback because 1) item was packed well & arrived as described 2) seller did give partial refund when subsequent price dropped below org purchase price. 3) communication was quick However, there was a downside to this transaction -item listed as in-stock but ended up waiting nearly a month for them to get it from their distributer then ship it to me (bought June 29th, arrived around July 21). Auction said 12-15 days. Better clarity would have prevented lot of frustration
