From the publisher
"The Extinction of Man" by H. G. Wells is a short essay. H. G. Wells once different, humorous social satire and ironic.
It is part of the excessive egotism of the human animal that the bare idea of its extinction seems incredible to it. "A world without us!" it says, as a heady young Cephalaspis might have said it in the old Silurian sea.
