Produktbeschreibung

"The Salvaging of Civilization" is a 1921 work by legendary English author H. G. Wells. Within it, Wells explains how a single planetary government could be created through education and the manipulation of public opinion. This book offers a fascinating insight into the mind of this seminal author and is highly recommended for those with an interest in global politics. Contents include: "The Probable Future of Mankind", "The Project of a World State", "The Enlargement of Patriotism to a World State", "The Bible of Civilization; Part One", et cetera. Herbert George Wells (1866 - 1946) was a prolific English writer who wrote in a variety of genres, including the novel, politics, history, and social commentary. Today, he is perhaps best remembered for his contributions to the science fiction genre thanks to such novels as "The Time Machine" (1895), "The Invisible Man" (1897), and "The War of the Worlds" (1898). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
