Produktbeschreibung

Jerry Hirsch presents a fascinating read of 101 vignettes and sketches describing events and topics presented in the news or the Internet as well as everyday life situations based on his own experiences. Many vignettes are factual, some are humorous, and others illustrate his own unique personal biases, but all come from a practical Christian perspective. This book is a thoughtful and humorous blend of Canada's Rex Murphy and the grumpy old men from The Muppets, sprinkled with a touch of wisdom. Each page offers a thought-provoking vignette of our society where you will often find yourself nodding in agreement or appreciation. Read about: Saddle Bronc Riding Should be an Olympic Sport, The Northwest Passage, Christ of the Klingons, The Wall Goes Up and The Wall Comes Down (referring to the Berlin Wall), Medical Alphabet Soup Fraud, Freeloaders and Blind Porsche Drivers, Death By Appointment ,What's Not in the Queen's Purse?

Autorenporträt

Jerry Hirsch grew up on an Alberta farm in the 1940s and 50s, but his parents decided he had few discernable practical skills and sent him off to university. He has a BSc (Pharmacy) and an MSc (Pharmacology) from the University of Alberta, plus a PhD (Pharmacology) from Michigan State University. He worked in research for Health Canada in Ottawa. His primary career was as a food/drug laboratory manager for Health Canada and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency in Vancouver, BC. Since retiring he has taught laboratory quality assurance (QA) and audited food/drug/mineral/forensic analytical laboratories for Standards Council of Canada. He spends his time in family and church activities, surfing the Internet and newspapers, and writing. Jerry is a keen road cyclist. The Thinker's Book is Jerry's second book.
