DJ Parker, billionaire developer of a proprietary artificial intelligence program, is on the cusp of cracking the miracle code that can usher in a new age of human progress. Amazingly, the technology is ancient, held by a group of beings that have been around for 50 million years: cetacea - species of aquatic mammals including killer whales. But Parker quickly learns he has dangerous enemies including a Russian conglomerate tied to the Kremlin which is seeking the research for its own nefarious purposes....

An exciting journey based on factual reality of the SRKW. Loved it!
Revisado: 09-08-20
Such a wonderful escape to the Salish Sea and highlight of the magnificent endangered SRKW. I love how the author addresses the factual reality of their situation and sad history of being stolen from their home and amplifies their sentience, intelligence, empathy and support of each other. While fictional liberties were taken for a great story- we KNOW these beautiful animals are extremely intelligent and communicate and express feelings to each other each and every day. I call myself an “orcaholic” and especially appreciate the note from the author at the end. I hope people will continue to educate themselves about the plight of the orcas- particularly the SRKW and what we as humans can do to help them. I think Mr. Swanson should pitch this book for a movie. I could truly envision it with each page and how great it would be to be able to draw as much attention to these orcas as possible. Loved it!

Jonathan Safran Foer spent much of his teenage and college years oscillating between omnivore and vegetarian. But on the brink of fatherhood - facing the prospect of having to make dietary choices on a child's behalf - his casual questioning took on an urgency His quest for answers ultimately required him to visit factory farms in the middle of the night, dissect the emotional ingredients of meals from his childhood, and probe some of his most primal instincts about right and wrong.

A Must Read for All!!
Revisado: 04-27-20
This book is excellent! It asks important questions about our relationship with animals and why we make the choices we do. We are literally living chapter 14 right now- a global pandemic and Foer explains it’s relationship to animal agriculture. This book is thought provoking and simply a must read. It could just be the game changing information that one needs to really self reflect on their own diet and choices and guide them to eating in a way that is more in line with their own values.
