Sinossi

In "Man's Place in the Universe," Alfred Russel Wallace articulates a profound inquiry into humanity's role within the vast cosmos. Employing a lucid and engaging literary style, Wallace deftly combines scientific reasoning with philosophical inquiry, presenting a synthesis of evolutionary theory and cosmology grounded in 19th-century scientific discourse. The book is a contemplative examination of not only natural selection but also the potential significance of human consciousness within the wider tapestry of the universe, reflecting the zeitgeist of the Victorian era and its burgeoning fascination with science and nature. Alfred Russel Wallace, a prominent naturalist and biogeographer, co-discovered the theory of evolution through natural selection alongside Charles Darwin. His extensive travels and research in the Amazon and the Malay Archipelago provided him with unique insights into species distribution and adaptation, shaping his views on the relationship between humanity and the universe. This intellectual curiosity, coupled with his engagement in debates on spirituality and science, found expression in this seminal work, reflecting his quest to reconcile scientific understanding with metaphysical contemplation. Readers intrigued by the philosophical implications of evolution and the interplay between human existence and the cosmos will find "Man's Place in the Universe" an enlightening exploration. Wallace's blend of science and philosophy invites a deeper reflection on the human condition, making this book a vital resource for scholars, scientists, and anyone attuning to the larger questions of existence.

    The Jupiter Sun - The Greatest...

    This book was inspired by my previous work of Science Fiction in: 'The Book To End All Books'. At the climactic conclusion of that book, I realized that we didn't have the 1,000 years I gave humankind to create a 2nd sun in the sky. We would be extinct by then and long buried in the debris of our own destruction. 
    So, I decided to put all the speculative knowledge that I had learned from my science fiction novel into use in this book in hopes that perhaps humanity would be wise enough to give it a try. We can do this. We can ignite Jupiter and create a 2nd sun. And, I also answer the question - Why would we do this? 
    Humanity has some major challenges to its continued existence that are caused by our technology. But now we have the opportunity to use our advanced space and rocket technology and our laser Fusion Reactor technology to combine them into a major project for the world to take on. 
    We can use our current knowledge of nuclear fusion and space travel to send a team to create a station on the four moons of Jupiter and shoot high energy red laser beams into the hydrogen core of Jupiter to ignite the gas giant into a 2nd sun in our sky. Don't worry - Jupiter is five times further away from us than our present sun, so it would not create any significant amounts of additional heat. It's also 1,000 times smaller than our 1st sun, so again, we have nothing to fear from increased heat. BUT, we would gain twice as much FREE AND SUSTAINABLE SOLAR ENERGY from another sun and this could be utilized by both the Earth and Mars to save our species.
