Project ‘SPYMAKER’ By: Kevin Pierce and Bryce Forrester Since the beginning of time, men have warred with one another, sometimes for land, sometimes for wealth, but, ultimately, always for power. The rules of engagement and the methods of combat have changed from century to century, always seeking the most efficient methods to bring one’s enemy to their knees. At the core of these conflicts, the most critical element: the gathering of intelligence. Victory has always come to those who have the advantage. “Spymaker” was the solution. Bioengineer the ultimate intelligence operative. Execution, however, was more than complex. From his birth, if it could be called that, Adam had never known any other life. He was at the center of the most profound scientific research of this century. A secret beyond all secrets in a desert laboratory hidden in plain sight. The abandoned observatory at 10,000 Falling Star Boulevard housed the results of the agency’s thirty-year gamble. Undetectable and limited only by biological constraints, the ultimate intelligence operative had been born. In the quest for intelligence, only one question remained: was he alone?
As a boy grows up the child of two unemotional doctors, he learns some of his work ethic and sense of duty from his beloved nanny. While he transforms from the toughest boy in his class into the runt and eventually into an academic and athletic success, the young man has no idea that many years later, his medical career will suddenly end, mainly because of one tumultuous event. In a hard-hitting narrative, Bryce Sterling details how his storybook life as a young physician slowly spiraled into a nightmare after he became embroiled in battles with his ex-wife, his lawyers, medical boards, courts, and colleagues. After sharing observations of the legal system, Sterling offers a glimpse into his background as he entered the medical field and then reveals the treachery and pitfalls that unfolded after he was sued for medical malpractice. As he details how he struggled to continue his shattered career until its bitter, premature end, Sterling shines a light on the inner-workings of a legal system he claims purportedly leaves doctors with a limited defense against the medical board. My Back Pages is the true story of a physicians journey before, during, and after his life and career were forever thrown into chaos.

Annotation The breadth of scientific and technological interests in the general topic of photochemistry is truly enormous and includes, for example, such diverse areas as microelectronics, atmospheric chemistry, organic synthesis, non-conventional photoimaging, photosynthesis, solar energy conversion, polymer technologies, and spectroscopy. This Specialist Periodical Report on Photochemistry aims to provide an annual review of photo-induced processes that have relevance to the above wide-ranging academic and commercial disciplines, and interests in chemistry, physics, biology and technology. In order to provide easy access to this vast and varied literature, each volume of Photochemistry comprises sections concerned with photophysical processes in condensed phases, organic aspects which are sub-divided by chromophore type, polymer photochemistry, and photochemical aspects of solar energy conversion. Volume 34 covers literature published from July 2001 to June 2002. Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage in major areas of chemical research. Compiled by teams of leading authorities in the relevant subject areas, the series creates a unique service for the active research chemist, with regular, in-depth accounts of progress in particular fields of chemistry. Subject coverage within different volumes of a given title is similar and publication is on an annual or biennial basis.
