Beschreibung

The future of mankind is in the hands of science—and it may not survive.
In The World Set Free, H. G. Wells imagines a world transformed by the discovery of atomic energy—decades before the real-world invention of nuclear weapons. His vision is both awe-inspiring and terrifying: nations wield unprecedented power, but with it comes catastrophic global warfare and the urgent question of whether humanity can learn to control the forces it unleashes.

First published in 1914, this prophetic novel predicts the atomic bomb and the political upheavals it could bring, offering a startlingly accurate warning about technology's double-edged nature. At once thrilling, tragic, and hopeful, Wells' masterpiece explores the tension between scientific advancement and moral responsibility.

"An extraordinary work of prophetic imagination—Wells foresaw the atomic age with chilling clarity."
– The Guardian

"A masterpiece of speculative fiction that still resonates today."
– The New York Times

    “Patient history” is a medical term describing the method by which doctors gather information about a patient’s past and present conditions. Yet, how much of a patient’s history do doctors really know, and how much agency do we have in determining our own histories? 
    Patient History is a whimsical exploration of the typically grim world of sickness and death. Woven from pop culture, fairytales, and East-meets-West childhood memories of growing up in Singapore, these fantasies are cotton candy sweet—osteoporosis becomes Singapore’s signature Chili Crab, a fistula transfigures into fairy, and organs are commemorated as a theme park.

    "Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me the truth. 
    " 
    "If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be." 
     
    "As if you could kill time without injuring eternity." 
     
    Walden was published in 1854 by American transcendentalist writer Henry David Thoreau. The text is a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings. The work is part personal declaration of independence, a social experiment, a voyage of spiritual discovery, satire, and—to some degree—a manual for self-reliance. 
     
    Henry David Thoreau was an American naturalist, essayist, poet, and philosopher. A leading transcendentalist, he is best known for his book Walden, a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings, and his essay "Civil Disobedience", an argument for disobedience to an unjust state.
