Zack Lightman has never much cared for reality. He vastly prefers the countless science-fiction movies, books, and videogames he's spent his life consuming. And too often, he catches himself wishing that some fantastic, impossible, world-altering event could arrive to whisk him off on a grand spacefaring adventure.

Highly recommend. Especially for you 80s nerd nastalgia nuts like me. This book as well as Ready Player One really filled the bill.

Particle physicist Jon Grady is ecstatic when his team achieves what they've been working toward for years: A device that can reflect gravity. Their research will revolutionize the field of physics - the crowning achievement of a career. Grady expects widespread acclaim for his entire team. The Nobel Prize. Instead, his lab is locked down by a shadowy organization whose mission is to prevent at all costs the social upheaval sudden technological advances bring.

If you could sum up Influx in three words, what would they be?
Amazing plausible fiction

If you have any knowledge of technology, this book will floor you. If you don't? Even if you don't understand what they are saying, you will get the gist of it. Well written and feeds the imagination.

The government is not a neutral arbiter of truth. It never has been. It never will be. Doubt everything. John Stossel does. A self-described skeptic, he has dismantled society's sacred cows with unerring common sense. Now he debunks the most sacred of them all: our intuition and belief that government can solve our problems. In No, They Can't, the New York Times best-selling author and Fox News commentator insists that we discard that idea of the "perfect" government - left or right - and retrain our brain to look only at the facts, to rethink our lives as independent individuals - and fast.

People do not realize how much they are lulled into believing that big government is good government (both Republicans and Democrats). Finally there is someone looking at our country without politically tinted glasses. A real eye opener. Both Tea Party and Occupiers will find this book enlightening. If everyone read this book our country would be a lot better off.
