The World Set Free

Book cover
An English writer, the author of numerous science fiction novels, Herbert George Wells, wrote a story, yet in 1913, of nuclear war and social and political problems it involves. “The World Set Free” was published after the much-talked-of “The War of the Worlds”, where global war between the Earth and Mars was described. Here Wells combined scientific authenticity with his political forecasts of a future world-wide nation. Moreover, the book demonstrates that people’s notion of such a catastrophe, in the very beginning of Nuclear Age, were quite adequate.
In spite of its age, “The World Set Free” is considered to be one of the best books of the events, completely unknown to his contemporaries; describing nuclear war to some extend better than numerous modern authors.
