    Herbert George Wells (1866–1946, Figure 1.1) was an English writer who wrote more than fifty novels and dozens of short stories. In addition to the science fiction novels that he is well known for, he also wrote nonfiction works on politics and history. He is often referred to as the "father of science fiction." He is also known as a forward-looking social critic who wrote several utopian works and foresaw much of the technology that we enjoy today.
