Around 750 BC, the Assyrians put together Papyrus, ink, and the Aramaic language and alphabet to create an empire and a technological revolution, and humanity has been recording itself ever since. In 740, Isaiah, one of the first literate prophets, wrote about a King that would save his country which has carried down to the present day as every generation works out its own salvation in search of the Messiah.

Autorenporträt
I was born in Central London. My family moved to a West London Suburb just before the Second World War. We moved to the countryside to avoid the blitz. At the end of hostilities, we returned home where I attended a small Private School. I was taught English language and Literature by Vernon Scannell, a famous British author and poet. At sixteen I worked as a laboratory technician in a London chemical company. A post in a laboratory in Southern Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, followed. Motor cycling to the capital three hundred miles away enabled me to get a girlfriend. The loneliness of my Lowveld situation together with pursuit by the Rhodesian army encouraged me to obtain a student place at Cape Town University. Short of money a laboratory post followed in a dynamite factory in Johannesburg. The sexual overtures of my female inductor distracted me, resulting in a visit to the chief chemist. I returned to my London parental home by hitchhiking across Africa and Europe in 1960 with a Jewish tailor. I failed my British medical for compulsory military service. A London post in Overseas Surveys enabled me to write about overpopulation in Africa. This helped me to win an interview at Cambridge University. I finally got a degree from London University while working in the laboratories there, followed by two more degrees and teaching certificates. As a result, I taught and lectured. I later became a local government ecologist.
