Advice: read the novel Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury

















Fahrenheit 451 is a novel by Ray Bradbury published in 1953. It is regarded as one of his best works. The novel presents a future American society where books are outlawed and "firemen" burn any that are found. The title refers to the temperature that Bradbury thought to be the temperature when paper starts burning by itself (In reality, scientists place the autoignition temperature of paper anywhere from high 440 degrees Fahrenheit to some 30 degrees hotter, depending on the study and type of paper).
