Vladimir Babitsky was born before the Second World War and migrated
West after Perestroika. The theory of vibro-impact systems that he
developed helped create the world's safest jackhammer and other
record-breaking machines. The author has lived through a series of
fascinating epochs: experiencing life under totalitarianism,
witnessing the Soviet Union's collapse, and then migrating to
Europe as a specialist in his field. "On the Waves of a Pulsating
World" is an animated and highly engaging story about the journey
of an engineer; from childhood daydreams to creating new
technologies, from East to West, and from concepts to realities. It
is also the story of people who outshine authoritarianism.
