7237539A Short History of the Worldhttps://www.gandhi.com.mx/a-short-history-of-the-world-9783347637283/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4598262/image.jpg?v=638950382465000000149149MXNtreditionInStock/Ebooks/<p>A Short History of the World - H. G. Wells - A Short History of the World by H. G. Wells was first published in 1922 and was intended as a shorter version of his earlier book The Outline of History. Taking the reader from the birth of galaxies to the first world war, this is a very comprehensive book that succinctly explains the development of life, religions, and humankind in general. The book was endorsed by Albert Einstein and was also banned by the Francoist government in Spain in 1940 for showing socialist inclinations, attacking the Catholic Church, and giving a view of the Spanish Civil war that didnt sit right with Francisco Franco. In between the origin of the universe and WWI, Wells discusses the beginning of life, the age of mammals, the first men, ancient civilisations, the birth of Judaism and Christianity, the ancient Greeks, the reformation, the American war of Independence, and much more. Herbert George Wells (21 September 1866 13 August 1946) was an English writer. Prolific in many genres, he wrote dozens of novels, short stories, and works of social commentary, history, satire, biography and autobiography. His work also included two books on recreational war games. Wells is now best remembered for his science fiction novels and is sometimes called the "father of science fiction. During his own lifetime, however, he was most prominent as a forward-looking, even prophetic social critic who devoted his literary talents to the development of a progressive vision on a global scale. A futurist, he wrote a number of utopian works and foresaw the advent of aircraft, tanks, space travel, nuclear weapons, satellite television and something resembling the World Wide Web. His science fiction imagined time travel, alien invasion, invisibility, and biological engineering. Brian Aldiss referred to Wells as the "Shakespeare of science fiction", while American writer Charles Fort referred to him as a "wild talent". Wells rendered his works convincing by instilling commonplace detail alongside a single extraordinary assumption per work dubbed "Wellss law" leading Joseph Conrad to hail him in 1898 as "O Realist of the Fantastic!". His most notable science fiction works include The Time Machine (1895), which was his first novel, The Island of Doctor Moreau (1896), The Invisible Man (1897), The War of the Worlds (1898) and the military science fiction The War in the Air (1907). Wells was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature four times.</p>...4782387A Short History of the World149149https://www.gandhi.com.mx/a-short-history-of-the-world-9783347637283/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4598262/image.jpg?v=638950382465000000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20229783347637283_W3siaWQiOiJkMDFkZjNmYi05YTUyLTRkNDMtOWI1OS1mNTE4ZDVlMDk2MDIiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjE0OSwiZGlzY291bnQiOjAsInNlbGxpbmdQcmljZSI6MTQ5LCJpbmNsdWRlc1RheCI6dHJ1ZSwicHJpY2VUeXBlIjoiQWdlbmN5IiwiY3VycmVuY3kiOiJNWE4iLCJmcm9tIjoiMjAyNS0xMC0wMlQxMzowMDowMFoiLCJyZWdpb24iOiJNWCIsImlzUHJlb3JkZXIiOmZhbHNlfV0=9783347637283_<p>A Short History of the World - H.
