Produktbeschreibung
The population of earth has reached twenty-two billion people with both food supplies and housing predicted to be unable to keep up with increasing demand. The world is strictly controlled by one elected senate government called the Supreme World Senate. The guiding principle is "Human safety first." After the Transformation that gave total power to the Senate, the genius inventor and entrepreneur Durant develops a powerful graphene brain for his robots. He produces hundreds of millions of mobile working machines to do all the necessary labor on the earth while the government provides an income and housing for all humans. Advanced cell phones issues to the entire population can instantly identify each individual with their DNA. These phones become the people's identification. Durant sees the need and wants to establish humans in other solar systems on a new planet where no robots are allowed and sets about to assemble a team of gifted scientists.

Autorenporträt
Born storyteller and world traveler, Gregory's journey began in Melbourne where his father Dr. H.C. Corben taught Physics. He soon learned to adapt to change; at age three the family moved to Pittsburgh for Carnegie Tech. Under pressure from the House of Un-American Activities, they went to Cuernavaca, Mexico for a year; then to Genoa, Italy for two years before relocating to LA. During high school he read everything by Joseph Conrad and knew his higher education would come through traveling. After crossing the Pacific in a large sailboat he spent several years in Bali. Traveling through India and Nepal led to a year in Amsterdam. Settled back in San Francisco, Corben made numerous trips to Southeast Asia over the years as well as circling the globe once again with his artist wife. He now lives and writes in Northern California.
