Erewhon

by Samuel Butler

Overview

In the strange country of Erewhon, sick people are imprisoned while criminals are treated for sickness. Machines are are considered too dangerous to use. This subtle satire of Victorian society is still as thought-provoking and entertaining as when it was first written.

Butler was the first to write about the possibility that machines might develop consciousness by Darwinian Selection.
