*Silver medal winner in the 'Middle Grades Fiction' category of the Nautilus Book Awards 2015* Astie has always been different. Her 12th birthday is looming and she still has not decided on her thesis. All the Learners at the Hub picked theirs years ago. If it wasn't for her cousin, Jakob, life would be unbearable on Elemental Island. On the verge of being diagnosed with Social Syndrome, she stumbles upon Danny who has landed in a forbidden flight machine. To protect him, Astie persuades Jakob to tamper with the Overseer's memory. On the run from the Monitors together, Astie calls on her unique qualities to forge a friendship with the stranger and discover his reason for coming to the island. What she finds will shake the foundations of the place she calls home. Set on a secretive island utopia where science and logic rule, this intriguing novel explores and celebrates differences in people from an alternative perspective. It is engaging reading for children aged 8-13.

Gravitation, the sphere symmetrical expanding acceleration of Earth means Earth's surface is "falling" under our feet

The surface of the Earth is accelerating together with us.

We are taken by the surface of the Earth.

Earth's surface is approaching us as if having been in "free fall."

While we have all the evidence to prove it - through all of our everyday life and all of our actions - it is so strange that it is difficult to believe. We do not trust our intuition or experience, because it is so unbelievable.

This book on Gravitation: our Quantum Treasure does not want to convince you of the truth of the above. The purpose of the book is to show that Nature is granting us the chance to use the infinite energy capacity of gravitation. The future is about motion and electricity generation, based on gravitation.

The book's conclusions are based on process approach, on quantum energy and mass balance, on elementary (proton-, neutron-, electron-, quark- and other) processes, on the definition of time, and the understanding of intensity. Our life is constantly changing. The key is the balance.

The book gives arguments and explanations, describes events on quantum basis. It provides the perspective for the utilisation of Gravitation: our Quantum Treasure.

In Quantum Engine, Zoltan J. Kiss builds upon the revolutionary ideas he introduced in his previous books, Energy Balance of Relativity and Quantum Energy and Mass Balance, and provides a blueprint for solving Earth's energy crisis. In this, his third book, Kiss takes the discussion of quantum energy and mass-energy balance to its logical conclusion-the quantum engine. Kiss's calculations prove that acceleration generates electricity. This energy comes from the transformation of blue-shift energy into electron flow. The quantum impact of Earth's gravitation on the speeding particles results in the generation of an electron surplus, a source of electricity. Kiss's groundbreaking original research demonstrates that this mass-energy balance approach is the key to unlocking Earth's energy future. The transformation of mass into energy and the retransformation of energy into mass can produce a limitless supply of energy via the quantum engine-our future source of energy.

In his second book, Zoltan J Kiss brings his original research on the energy balance of relativity, published in 2007, to a revolutionary conclusion. He proves that the quantum energy impact of the Earth provides mankind with an energy surplus, a gift, for us to use.
His book is exciting reading even for non physicists. The quantum energy based explanations grant the book a specific value. Reading the book you will be participating in discussions - among many others - on the quantum energy and mass balance of the atomic structure of elements, the magnet, the speed of light, the plasma, the nature of water and fire, and on electric, hydrocarbon and nuclear engines.
The author's relativistic quantum approach is fascinating. Proofs have been provided through mathematics but also supplemented with practical examples.
Zoltan J Kiss successfully achieves his aim. He shows that we have a potential new energy source to exploit. This is the quantum energy impact of the motion of the Earth.
