    The dramatic story of an ingenious man who explained nature and created a country. 
     
     
     
    Benjamin Franklin was one of the preeminent scientists of his time. Driven by curiosity, he conducted cutting-edge research on electricity, heat, ocean currents, weather patterns, chemical bonds, and plants. But today, Franklin is remembered more for his political prowess and diplomatic achievements than his scientific creativity. 
     
     
     
    In this incisive and rich account of Benjamin Franklin's life and career, Richard Munson recovers this vital part of Franklin's story, reveals his modern relevance, and offers a compelling portrait of a shrewd experimenter, clever innovator, and visionary physicist whose fame opened doors to negotiate French support and funding for American independence. 
     
     
     
    Munson's riveting narrative explores how science underpins Franklin's entire story—from tradesman to inventor to nation-founder—and argues that Franklin's political life cannot be understood without giving proper credit to his scientific accomplishments.

    A ONE-SENTENCE DESCRIPTION: Scientific explanations of the teachings of The Gītā and The Upanisads (Vedānta), ancient Indian scriptures, through teacher-student storytelling and Q&A, ultimately showing readers how to lead a purpose-filled, action-oriented life of fulfillment. 
    A BRIEF DESCRIPTION: The book exposes readers to the deep science, logic and simplicity embedded in the teachings of The Gītā and The Upanisads (Vedānta), ancient Indian philosophical treatises. 
    The most important learning for the reader is to show that the ancient Indian teachings in The Gītā and The Upanisads, if followed with discipline, will lead to a life filled with purpose, fulfillment and mental wellbeing. For this I present the MEDYK framework – Meditation, Exercise, Diet, Yoga and Karma Yoga, to be followed in that order, everyday. 
    Secondly, I introduce the deeply researched and validated concepts of The Upaniṣads by going into great depths and analyses of the aphorisms – I present here a novel way of bringing spirituality and science together in an audacious claim to blend them into a Spiritualistic Evolutionary Empirical Science, or SEES. 
    Lastly, the reader will learn how to apply this thinking to daily life through action with the right attitude (karma yoga). By developing Faith and Focus on these teachings, one will achieve a Fearlessness, Freedom and Fecundity of thought leading to a transformed way of living, and an unparalleled fulfillment of being.
