The World Set Free by H.G. Wells is a visionary 1914 novel that predicted the development of nuclear weapons decades before their invention. In this prophetic work, Wells explores how humanity harnesses atomic energy and unleashes destruction on a global scale, only to rebuild society on new foundations of peace and cooperation.
Description
The novel begins in a world racing toward technological advancement, where scientists unlock the power of atomic disintegration. What starts as a triumph of human progress spirals into chaos when nations use this limitless energy to create devastating bombs. Entire cities are obliterated, ushering in an era of unprecedented warfare that seems impossible to end.
Wells moves beyond catastrophe to examine the potential for renewal. In the aftermath of global destruction, world leaders unite to form a new social and political order dedicated to preventing future wars. The narrative becomes a meditation on science, ethics, and humanity’s responsibility to control its own inventions—a theme that resonates even more strongly in the nuclear age.
