Show by National Commission on the BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spi
Anticipations by H. G. Wells.Wells considered this book one of his most important, a natural follow-up to such works as his Man of the Year Million and The Time Machine. His goal was to get people to think and act in new ways. The book starts with a look at how humans get along socially and how they carry out their business ventures. It then discusses how these elements influence others, such as politics, the world of work, and education. H. G. tried to make clear how the current social order was disintegrating without preparing another to take its place. He then traced the roots of democracy, which in its present state he saw as unworkable. Instead, he proposed a new republic. He also critiqued modern warfare.Featured on Final Report on the BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.
