About this ebook
Griffin, a scientist, has devoted his life to the study of optics. As his work progresses, he invents a method of making a person invisible. After testing the experiment on himself, he comes to realize that while the experiment was a complete success, he has no way of reversing his invisibility.
Written in a time of rapid scientific progress and industrial development, Wells uses Griffin’s struggle with his condition and descent into obsession and madness to reflect on the dangers of unbridled scientific progress untempered by compassion or humanity.
The Invisible Man was initially serialized in Pearson’s Weekly in 1897, after which it was published as a whole novel that same year.
This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.

This was a great book. I enjoyed the setting and the plot. The book demonstrates how invisibility can be harmful to community. Overall, the story approves of the examination of the morals of invisibility as a technology.
