Book info: Maps of Utopia: H. G. Wells, Modernity and the End of Culture (Hardcover, 246 pages) – Oxford University Press, 2012. Language: English.

This is the first study of the literary theories of H. G. Wells, the founding father of English science fiction and once the most widely read writer in the world. It explores his entire career, during which he produced popular science, educational theory, history, politics, and prophecy, as well as realist, experimental, and science fiction. Editorial Reviews Review "...James's meticulous research provides keen insights not only into H. G. Wells's literary goals but also, more broadly, the social, political, and--most importantly--the educational climate of Wells's age." --Journal of the Fantiastic in the Arts
