An Englishman Looks at the World

'An English Man Looks At The World' represents a twenty six piece collection of essays of varying length from acclaimed British author H.G. Wells. The collection of journalistic pieces written in the years before the First World War represent the authors move away from writing novels to journalism. There are opinion pieces such as the "So-Called Science of Sociology" which argues sociology can never be a science because at its core it is deceitful and overlooks the truly important matter, the uniqueness of individuals. The collection offers personal looks in to Wells' life, as he recounts his "First Flight", which is perfect reading for any true fans of the sci-fi great.
