The Flaws of PerfectionThe term "utopia" was first introduced by Sir Thomas More in 1516 who chose it as the title of his book describing the ideal or perfect society . Ironically, the term was coined from Greek words which, literally translated, mean “no place.” Sir Thomas More's vision of the perfect society parallels that of Aldous Huxley, the author of Brave New World, and John Wyndham, the author of The Chrysalids. These two authors use the extremes of human ideals to demonstrate that a perfect society cannot exist and that striving single-mindedly toward that society will inevitably lead to dystopia..
