Il est intéressant de noter que le titre français du roman est Le Meilleur des mondes, une allusion au Candide de Voltaire. L'expression brave new world s'utilise à propos de tout changement de société provoqué par les progrès de la science. On parlera par exemple de the brave new world of genetic manipulation ("l'ère de la manipulation génétique"").
