4.0 out of 5 stars Good but flawed book, June 25, 2009

By	Michael Miller (Sunnyvale, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I read this book in high school, and I'm sure that it was assigned because it has a number of interesting ideas contained within it. However, it was written at the dawn of the nuclear age, and it is very dated. Many things that seemed plausible back then are simply established to be impossible now. Still, the book was so good, that I am constantly reminded about the ideas in it when I see the rise in "infotainment" and nightly celebrity worship shows (ET, Access, ...). I would recommend reading it as if you were living in the 1950s. If you do, you will be richly rewarded.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Idea but NOT an incredible book, May 19, 2009

By	David ""The Teacher"" (Newport News, Va USA) - See all my reviews

I am a 10th grade teacher so I read all of the books that I will teach my students. One of these was Farenheit 451. I know it's a classic and I love Ray Bradbury but this book is famous more for the idea than the actual story. This is the type of book that you could discuss but not the type of book I would recommend for pleasure reading. Some of his other works and short stories I find much better than this including the one he references in the book, The Pedestrian. Ray Bradbury is great but don't read this book thinking that you will be completely engrossed from page one. However, if you want something to really think about and an idea that is incredibly interesting this is the ticket.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dry leaves serve the fire, July 30, 2006

By	Melkor Fritz "Rei" (Valencia,CA Venezuela) - See all my reviews

Just try to imagine how could be our world today with every book with a death sentence... it would be worst that it is today.
This is a terrific story, which comes from a desperate internal scream of liberty, `cause our freedom is made in the cements of the knowledge. Bradboury paints us a history perfect to be the worst nightmare ever; every detail was clearly study step by step, to gain us into a wonderful story that mede me feel at first horror and later a little bit of pain, just to think that once the world not far enough was tried to get ruled by an enmey of the many expressions of thinking.

The main message of this history is to valuate and feel a posetion feeling of our information, but mainly of the imprent information, which it has been leaving behind by this generation.
