Handmaid's Tale 1

The Handmaid's Tale has definitely been a interesting read. The main point I got from the book would be the vast changes that are possible in the world and how things can turn out to be. I think with the way our world has vastly changed over the last decade, every thing is possible. This book could very well be foreshadowing the way our world could be in 50 years. Hopefully not, but everything is possible. Science and technology so often change that any new type of creations could be made. On a different note, our evolving science could soon discover the harm that many of our new found technologies could actually be doing.

Trying to relate this book to today's science and technology is difficult, but being able to have an imagination and looking into the vast future could help. There could be science created that could maybe determine the most fertile females and males. If this were to be created, our world could totally change and become more of a company than a society. Everyone would have different jobs, some being child bearers and some being other necessities. I think all of these things are extremely possible considering the way our science and technology have been improving.
