Product Description
Elaine Morris, an investigative reporter, hotly chases the trail of Kyle Milt, an interdisciplinary genius, a modern day Leonardo
...
da Vinci, who claims to have mastered the structure of the atom. She pursues him not only because the story promises to be the most fascinating of her career, but because privately she feels a deepening lack of faith in life, and she wonders if one who examines life more thoroughly than any who have lived before him thinks life beautiful or ugly.
Unable to find him directly, she follows the track of his research, and as she does so confronts some of the most vital work ever done in the history of civilization: in math, science, art, puzzles, music and more. The more she learns, the more she begins to love life.
Unbeknownst to her, she begins a progression identical to that woven into the tale of Kyle and his true love, Beth.
For Kyle, all of his life and work would be the ultimate expression of love for the woman he became determined to inspire. For Elaine, the work would be the final answer to the question of whether man would ever realize paradise on earth.
From the Publisher
The author of 'Death of the Innovator' (which is a work of fiction) has developed a new, real theory of the atom which is described in a paper on the web.
I feel the evidence in support of this theory is rock solid and it is extremely frustrating that the rest of the scientific community has not acknowledged this work yet--so much of the future of technology may hinge upon this new progress. The author expected real life would mimic the novel he wrote to describe a sort of 'story behind the story' of the discoveries, but probably did not expect the extent of the mimicry. I encourage everyone to evaluate the information in the paper for themselves, and as I find the novel the most important one I have ever seen, I encourage others to grapple with the history of innovation and genius as shown in the story to see if maybe we all can do a little better when it comes to embracing new ideas. This novel gets my strongest possible recommendation.
From the Author
For years I have grappled with the bold question of whether man can ever realize paradise on earth. I have written a novel summarizing what I believe to be significant pioneering steps on the pathway to earthly paradise. One of the great advantages of fiction is that it can dramatize events and show dangers in story form before they happen in real life--giving us a chance to prevent disasters in reality by learning from fiction. I sincerely hope this novel does much to change thinking in such subjects as mathematics, geometry, physics, science in general, and genius. I am convinced that most of the problems we face already have solutions--in some cases solutions which have been around for centuries--but these solutions are just not being used for different reasons. I would like to see those solutions used--and if you would, too, find out more about the issues considered in this book and the ones raised at our website.
If what we want does not exist, that is not necessarily cause for despair--it may just be a sign for us to start building what we imagine, and as the main charater says in the story: "Desire finds a way; complacency breeds mediocrity."
About the Author
Acheron got his first library card at the age of two, and has been intensely researching ever since. He has independently studied writing, writing, art, music, exercise, martial arts, mathematics, and science at an advanced level. Among his accomplishments in these areas is the development of a new theory of physics which enables the redesign of the Periodic Table of the Elements into its true multidimensional form. He has tried to present these ideas to the scientific community, but thus far, he, too, has encountered a world where prestige moves men more than truth. He hopes this novel will help to change that. A technical paper written by a colleague discussing his work is ava
