  The New Accelerator features a fascinating depiction of the invention of what sounds a lot like an amphetamine (though technically they had already been invented a dozen years earlier). It will also remind Star Trek fans of the episode called Wink of an Eye.

  Tono-Bungay

  H. G. Wells

  First published in 1909, Tono-Bungay is one of H.G. Wells’s most striking novels, blending sharp social critique with personal reflection. It tells the story of George Ponderevo, a scientifically minded young man who becomes entangled in the world of speculative business through his uncle’s fraudulent patent medicine, Tono-Bungay. Through George’s journey—from an obscure provincial upbringing to the heights of financial success and eventual disillusionment—Wells offers a biting satire of Edwardian capitalism, class mobility, and the moral compromises of ambition. 
  While Tono-Bungay is often read as a critique of reckless entrepreneurship, it is also a deeply personal work, reflecting Wells’s own concerns about progress, empire, and the fleeting nature of wealth. The novel captures the tension between scientific idealism and the chaotic forces of commerce, making it as relevant today as it was over a century ago. 
  At once humorous and tragic, sweeping and intimate, Tono-Bungay remains one of Wells’s finest literary achievements—a novel that continues to provoke thought about the nature of success and the price of modernity.
