Produktbeschreibung
There are many "ISSUES" facing the World and the United States, but the book only discusses eleven, which probably cover most of those that could be considered important. The following highlight those issues. ¿ Population - The population of the World drives many of the other issues - Food, Water, Economics, with each of these being another chapter of the book. ¿ Inequality - This is not only between nations but is an issue within the country , including the United States. ¿ Global Warming - This World wide issue has only recently been taken seriously by Governments, and amazingly enough there are still deniers. There are consequences for all and for some they will be catastrophic. ¿ Terrorism - A major problem in the World, but contrary to the media, and the general view of the public, except for 9/11, it has not been a truly catastrophic event in the United States. ¿ Health - The industrial nations are OK - The United States is failing - The poorest nations - disaster. ¿ Education - A key to upward mobility and happiness ¿ Religion - Most influence their own nation and some violently affect others. ¿ Dysfunctional Government - Aren't they all?

Autorenporträt
Robert William Kupp is a graduate Chemical Engineer who became a Nuclear Engineer after his work on the Manhattan Atom Bomb project during World War II in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. From that nuclear beginning, Mr. Kupp's full time career was in the development of civilian nuclear power, its economics, its fuel, and safety. He was also an Adjunct Professor in Nuclear Engineering at New York Polytechnic University. After his retirement, in addition to more reading, music, oil painting, and some traveling he wrote two books. The first, an autobiography, "A Nuclear Engineer in the Twentieth Century" which discussed not only his working career, but his youth, home life, the island of Nantucket and sailing. His second book, "ENERGY - A Solution", is a laissez faire approach to energy's future - with a combination of conservation, wind, solar and nuclear. This book includes some of his energy thoughts in the Chapter on "Global Warming" an issue that will affect every nation in the World
