First And Last Things

Exploring fundamental questions of human existence, H.G. Wells delves into the nature of the universe, the meaning of life, and the possibility of an afterlife from a scientific perspective. The book is structured into four parts: the origins of life, the evolution of society influenced by science and technology, the quest for purpose, and considerations of humanity's ultimate fate. Wells advocates for a rational worldview, offering a thought-provoking examination of existence's mysteries. This facsimile reprint preserves the cultural significance of the original work.
