Using the latest information from Science, WONDERPAGES seeks answers to the following: Where are we? Where did we come from? What are we? and finally, Where are we going?

About the Author

John D. Raulerson, Jr. was born in 1921 in Bartow, Florida. He resides there today with his wife of 50 years, Anne Widerquist Raulerson.

His extensive education began with a degree in Chemical Engineering from Georgia Tech during WWII. It has continued for many years with graduate studies in Experimental Psychology, Religion, and Education. At age 50, he received a master's degree in Systems Engineering from the University of South Florida.

Over the 55 years of his professional career the author was active in a wide variety of work. During World War II he was in charge of maintenance for a squadron of P-51 aircraft. Following that he was a founding partner of an engineering firm that developed the first mass-produced, pretensioned, prestressed concrete structural system for building construction. This system us widely used today.

Later, he moved into the fabrication of heavy structural steel and was active in supplying many of the launch structures used by the Air Force and NASA at the Kennedy Space Center.

He also did extensive work in developing procedures and processes to increase the efficiency and recovery in phosphate mining and beneficiation operations. Most of the later years of his career were as project manager for the design and construction of chemical and metallurgical plants.

After a lifetime as a practicing engineer it was natural for the author to be influenced by engineering methods in writing Wonderpages. Traditionally the engineer takes the findings of science and applies them in the world for the benefit of mankind.

The results of the application of this methodology are incorporated in Wonderpages - a study based on use of the latest scientific research to find modern answers to the ancient questions: Where are we? Where did we come from? What are we? And finally, where are we going?

The author is the co-author with Martin Wong, Ph.D of a book "The Systematic Design of Instruction". In writing this book the authors employed the same methodology that was used for Wonderpages. The authors researched the literature on how human learning occurs and then applied the findings to design the conditions for efficient learning of different types.
