DARK MATTER by Garfield Reeves-Stevens

Finished Mo 8/7/23

This is one of my ancient trade paperbacks that I bought at The Book House, Rock Hill, MO on Th 10/19/95.  I never read the book although it is very much like a Dean Koontz novel.

You learn a little about Quantum Physics.

It begins with a 'kitchen table' brain surgery with the patient fully conscious and ends with global annihilation. 

TOE: Theory of Everything

Singularity: the instant before 'The Big Bang'

Xeno's Paradox: If crossing a street you take a half step and then half of the next step...you will never reach the other side of the street. If you divide matter in the same way, you would reach a point where you couldn't divide it because there would be nothing left. 

'E' equals MC Squared: Matter and Energy are points along the same continuum. 

Newtonian Physics says that when things are in motion, they begin to slow (regress), but at the sub-atomic level this is no longer true. 

A young genius has the backing of the US government to find The Singularity. The government wants to use whatever he finds for weapons of war and he wants to become god. 

The book that I read was an advanced uncorrected copy (I didn't notice any mistakes) and I checked the author on the internet and he has written several highly acclaimed books since then.
