About this product

Product Information

When Dr Philip Raven, an intellectual working for the League of Nations, dies in 1930 he leaves behind a powerful legacy - an unpublished 'dream book'. Inspired by visions he has experienced for many years, it appears to be a book written far into the future- a history of humanity from the date of his death up to 2105. The Shape of Things to Come provides this 'history of the future', an account that was in some ways remarkably prescient - predicting climatic disaster and sweeping cultural changes, including a Second World War, the rise of chemical warfare, and political instabilities in the Middle East.

    Things to Come

    This is a well presented version of the classic title "The Shape of Things to Come" by the father of British science fiction H G Wells. Although dated it a very interesting take on the possible future of mankind. Part of the interest is in seeing what he got right and what is totally different.
