The Food of the Gods and How It Came to Earth

What if science could make giants—but not wisdom?

The Food of the Gods and How It Came to Earth is H. G. Wells at his most provocative and imaginative. This gripping novel tells the story of two scientists who develop a substance that causes explosive growth in plants, animals, and—most dangerously—humans. As colossal children rise and social order collapses, Wells explores the chaos unleashed when science outruns ethics.

A biting satire of unchecked progress and societal fear of change, this underappreciated classic combines bold speculative fiction with profound moral questions, making it eerily relevant today.
