The Flaws of Perfection The 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 that, translated literally, 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 Chrysalis. Both of these authors use the extremes of human ideals to demonstrate that the perfect society cannot exist and determinedly striving towards that society will inevitably lead to dystopia..
