غلاف H. G. Wells: Anticipations of the Reaction of Mechanical and Scientific Progress Upon Human Life and Thought (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) (ePUB)

Throughout his career, Wells kept his eye on the future. In 1901 he used this book to make predictions for the twentieth century. He foresaw the development of mass transportation and the automobile, air power in combat, and even the decline of permanent marriage. His hits and misses make for fascinating reading.

H. G. Wells (1866–1946), is often called the “Father of Science Fiction.” While science fiction was his most popular genre, Wells also wrote on history, politics, and made social commentary. His “scientific romances” speculated about the future, scientific advancements, and outer space. His works include The Time Machine, and The War of the Worlds.
