The Amish Rocket Scientist, by Nikola Bijeliti

Posted 04-20-2018

I have a new book out, The Amish Rocket Scientist. Here is a description of the book:

Is technology good or bad? How much technology do we really need to live? Is there a point beyond which too much technology can hurt us? This novel explores these questions by following the life of an Amish man who decides to become a rocket scientist. How little technology can he live with while still pursuing the aim of rocket science? His story is set against the backdrop of a war of independence which aims to give the Amish an independent homeland. In this book, the Amish are used as a device with which to consider the question of the appropriate level of technology for a society. It should not be construed as a genuine portrayal of the Amish or their lifestyle.

The subject of the book is highly topical. A couple of months ago, someone posted in the lounge on the subject, and, right after I finished writing the book, and just as I was about to send a copy to Michael Jeffrey to review, The Daily Stormer published an article on the same subject.

Whereas my previous novel, The Limits of Loyalty, dealt with the subject of what technology non-White people should be allowed to have, this book deals with the subject of what technology White people should be allowed to have.
