H.G. Wells was a pioneering British writer and social thinker whose work helped define the genre of modern science fiction while engaging critically with the political and technological transformations of his time. Best known for novels such as The Time Machine (1895), The War of the Worlds (1898), and The Invisible Man (1897), Wells used speculative narratives to explore themes of evolution, imperialism, class conflict, and the ethical implications of scientific progress. Trained in science under T.H. Huxley, Wells combined imaginative storytelling with a rationalist outlook, positioning his fiction as both entertainment and social critique. Beyond literature, he was an influential commentator on education, politics, and global peace, advocating for progressive reforms and world government.
