The God Patent (54 page)

My website is
www.ransomstephens.com
and there’s a bunch of stuff there about
The God Patent
, including a bibliography, a bunch of relevant (and irrelevant) science, a reader’s guide, videos, and more background about the characters. If you have any questions about the science in
The God Patent
or something related, feel free to ask!

Should you ever wonder, I prefer beer to wine, tea to coffee, hard rock to jazz, and I attend every Oakland Raiders home game.
