Dr. Jones is the father of 3 young men and 'Reflections' was written for his grandchildren to summarize lessons of life that he has learned. The hard cover book is delightful and contains much more than we are able to present. The chapters are short and can be read in a few minutes. We are honoured to have his permission to bring this
series of 31 glimpses of life to you. As you will see Engineers and
Scientists have wide ranging interests. Dr. Jones typifies that
with curiosity about our universe and the hidden nature of life. Enjoy
the first in the series
He is currently writing a book on Religion whose purpose is summarized as follows: "Religion and man's attempt to imagine God as a force in his environment through religion has been the foundation upon which all human knowledge has progressed. In the last thousand years, orthodox western religion has separated itself from this search for knowledge. Religion now simply defends its 1500 year old dogma, to both society's and religion's detriment. This book will attempt to revive the religious quest to understand God and part of his/her/its participation in our universe." We are anxious to see this work in publication
