He was prolific in many genres, writing dozens of novels, stories and social commentary works, history, satire, biography and autobiography, and even included two books on recreational war games. He is now best remembered for his science fiction novels and is often called the "father of science fiction," along with Jules Verne and editor Hugo Gernsback. During his own life, however, he was more prominent as a social critic with a vision of the future, even a prophetic one, who dedicated his literary talents to the development of a progressive vision on a global scale.
