Synopsis

The Balance Point is a story of a search for somethingso mysterious that the main character doesn't even know what it is, orhow to recognize it if he finds it. It touches on science,mathematics, economics, religion, and spirituality, in a manner that isboth illuminating and disturbing.

Based on actual occurrences and factual scientific and environmental information, The Balance Point weaves a compelling adventure story into an ominous tapestryof planetary degradation. Jonathan is reluctantly goaded intosatisfying the conditions of his deceased Aunt's cryptic Last Will,sending him on a puzzling journey to perplexing destinations. What hefinds is worrisome, yet hopeful: something has gone missing in ourcollective human consciousness.

The timely message takes a critical subject and handles it in a clever way. Thisis an uncommonly provocative educational and spiritual journey whichingeniously captivates the reader from the beginning. The story is soengrossing and the author's writing style so light and breezy that onlyafter finishing the book will it hit the reader just how much information had been conveyed. The Balance Point is intriguing and suspenseful; all in all, a fascinating read.
