1. What is the World State's Motto?
Community, Identity, Stability.
2. Please describe Bokanovsky's Process. Why does The Director call it the "major instrument of social stability?"
One egg of one embryo buds into multiple eggs by manipulation of X – ray technology. He says this because he believes that creating these identical people will solve any issue of identity in the society.
3. Why did the doctor wish to keep the Epsilon "embryo below par?"
He wants this because they need to be in an environment where the oxygen will affect its growth into what it is meant to be in society.
4. What does Mr. Foster mean when he says: "We condition them to thrive in heat...that is the secret of happiness of virtue - liking what you've got to do. All conditioning aims at that: making people like their inescapable social destiny."? How does this connect to what is happening in Rack 10?
They are specially creating these people serve certain purposes and functions in society and they make them so that they assume their jobs are what should make them happy. Rack 10 is an example of this because it was conditioning the workers to have a tolerance for certain chemicals so that they could more efficiently work in the environment they were to be assigned to.
