Missing Something‪?‬

Missing Something? takes on some of the most pressing scientific issues facing society and challenges readers to think about them in new and unexpected ways.

Drawing on his seventy-six years of experience—much of it spent working as an engineering manager without a college degree at top companies—Johnny Doubter lives up to his name by asking tough questions, such as:

Can a moment stretch in time or maybe last forever as a valued memory? Just what is a moment anyway?

How can electronic equipment, with all of the voltage dependent devices, tolerate an overall static voltage charge without affecting operation?

Will we ever completely explain how a hundred or so atom types have linked together in various ways creating millions of lifeforms with different abilities?

What are the consequences of global warming?

We’re natural investigators, but we have been foolishly convinced that our job is to digest whatever the “experts” provide. We have a right and responsibility to awaken that sleepy organ snoozing in our heads.

Challenge what you’ve been taught with the fascinating questions, analysis, and insights in this book.
