Firstly, the novel presents a theme of isolation through the chararcter of Griffin, the invisible man. The Invisisble Man is a person with no friends, no family and just no one at all. He is isolated from the larger community. His formula of invisibility brings him in conflict with the community in Iping and intelligent people in London.
Second, H.G. Wells deals with the theme of betrayal in this novel. Griffin is in need of money in order to perform experiments on his formula of invisibility. He does not steal money from his father just to be mean but because he cares more about his scientific experiments than anything else. The stealth may be considered a betrayal.
Apart from these themes, the theme of corruption in the absence of social laws is at the centre of this novel.
