_Daily Mail._--“With a vigour and audacity of imagination which
no other writer of our day can equal, Mr. H. G. Wells has
described what the world will be like in the middle of the present
century.... A book which must make a very great impression.”
_Daily News._--“It is as startling as anything Mr. Wells has ever
written. It contains one of the most sensational chapters in the
literature of anticipation.”
_Times._--“Once more, with his brilliant imagination, Mr. Wells
has projected the possibilities of a scientific development down
through society at large to the individual, and never has he done
so more convincingly or with greater ingenuity.”
