One of Wells’ lesser-known science fiction books, first published in 1906. It quickly became notorious for its apparent championing of sexual promiscuity, leading, perhaps surprisingly, to Wells being expelled from the Fabian Society.

The book is now only available in paperback, and this hardback edition is a proper sewn book and will open flat.
