The aim of this book is to present the biggest wonder in life ¿ birth. But though one should think about life-birth at this point, the emphasis will not be on this kind of conception. Two kinds of creation are shown in these novels. In Frankenstein it is the scientist who would like to bring to life a creature, while in Brave New World society uses cloning to determine the number of inhabitants in society. Another similarity can be mentioned that these two methods simply leave out women of creation, men want to achieve their goal without women as partners. Why do they desire so? Why is it so important to attain the capability of creation solely by men? Nowadays, the two novels are mentioned together as the possible-near-future. And also the question arises: can human play the role of God?
