About this product

Product Information

When you were taught in school that gravity is an attraction between solid bodies, didn't that sound like witchcraft to you? My manuscript, Uncommon Sense, provides a reasonable, clear, explanation of what Gravity really is plus a solution to many other problems. Uncommon Sense consists of 17 concise, researched, well-thought-out essays which offer thought-provoking solutions to problems. For instance: * Gravity is shown not to be the cause but the result of other forces, clearly shown by example. * Space travel, when the true cause of gravity is realized, leads directly to the conceptual design of a suitable vehicle without the need for conventional propulsion systems. * Transportation with its current commuter traffic jams can be alleviated by applying current technology to the design of automobiles. * Global Warming, which has been incorrectly attributed to the atmosphere by politicians, is explained has its true cause clearly explained. * The Constitution, although brilliantly conceived for its day, has a few minor flaws that need updating to the modern world, particularly in the area of qualifications needed for a President. * Children's rights, particularly as regards the duties of the parents, can and should be formalized into law and enforced as shown. * Defense against attack has recently become a real necessity and can be readily provided by the suggested methods shown. * Capitalism and Democracy, two of the greatest notions of the modern world, both contain flaws that may be fatal but could be corrected by implementing the suggestions made. * Retirement, with its unique problems, is discussed together with suggested methods of pleasant adjustment. * The Stock Market, a mystery to many and a burden to most, is explained in terms that allow anyone to understand and choose a suitable course tailor-made for success. * Muslims, through no fault of their own, are missing out of an important concept. This "missing link" is revealed and discussed. * Erasing Prejudice, a subject that is often all criticism and no constructive thought, is attacked with concrete suggestions toward achieving progress. * Religion, how parents inadvertently provide obstacles to its understanding is discussed with a few short stories. * Golf Courses, their gradual demise resulting from over-building, are shown to have a bright future for nearby inhabitants through modern technology. * Gardening, how to avoid the hard work and learn to enjoy the result is presented. * Football Helmets and their dangerous design and use is corrected by application of existing technology taken from another sport. * Used Cars and some of the pitfalls associated with owning them are pointed out as fair warning. The essay collection is intended for use as a supplement for students at the college freshman or high school level and offers students the opportunity to submit their own alternate solutions for consideration of inclusion in a future second edition.

This is a nearly 20 year old edition, which is fine for how I intend to use it. If you're serious about Python look for a more up to date book, there have been many changes over the years.
