Intelligent life has been observing mankind for millenia. It's not alien. It's here. And it's not going to take anymore.

Produktbeschreibung
Intelligent life has been observing mankind for millenia. It's not alien. It's here. And it's not going to take anymore. Whales and dolphins (cetaceans) have almost always been peaceful and non-combative. But by the year 2015, their fishing grounds have been depleted to a critical level and both the cetaceans and their food supplies are being exposed to more pollution in both the water and air, further subjecting them to starvation and disease. The cetaceans have had enough. To preserve their place on this planet, they have banded together in a worldwide community effort to fight back. Since cetaceans do not construct and use tools, they resort to the next best thing for weapons: they use human-built weapons, lost or discarded at sea. Now it is up to man to decide whether to work with the cetaceans. Misjudgment could prove very costly.

Autorenporträt
Douglas R. Miller was born and educated in Pennsylvania, obtaining his bachelor degree from Washington and Jefferson College with majors in biology and chemistry. He then migrated to New York State where he got his Ph.D. in medical physiology from Cornell University and where he also met and married his wife, Jane. After doing his postdoc at Massachusetts General Hospital, he worked as a Research Scientist at several companies and universities. Dr. Miller wrote over 200 scientific papers, grants, patents and a lab manual. His research was mostly in the areas of arthritis, cancer, bone and soft tissue repair, enhanced vaccines, several areas of electrochemistry and food safety. After learning everything there is to know about everything in science, he is now retired in Texas where he and his wife plan to stay with their worthless dog (who's a bed hog) and a 21-year-old, very vocal and demanding cat (who usually talks loudly to herself in the middle of the night). As well as a pond full of bass and catfish. He writes science fiction when he feels like it because of his lifelong affection for the area. This is his first science fiction book.
