Anticipations by H.G. Wells

This speculative work outlines predictions for the 20th century in areas such as transport, education, politics, and morality. The author imagines how technological and social developments might shape the future, often with surprising accuracy. While not a narrative, the “plot” is structured as a progression from mechanical innovation to cultural transformation. It’s an early exercise in futurology, blending optimism with warnings. A bold and visionary work that influenced later thinkers and planners.
