Scientific War

“Scientific War” is an article written by H. G. Wells and first published in 1915. It explores the ideas of the scientific advancement of war and the ramifications this has had—in the case of the start of the First World War—on all aspects of warfare from injuries to strategy. A fascinating treatise, “Scientific War” is highly recommended for those with an interest in WWI and the work of H. G. Wells. 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.
