About the Book

A few years ago Dan McVickar began writing about his life’s experiences starting with the era of World War II when he was a small boy. Dan grew up in the small rural town of Sumner, IL. Living there was frugal but mostly pleasant. The notable exception was Dan’s experience at age 14 with being the target of religious hysteria during a church revival. High school was relatively carefree with studies directed toward studying engineering in college. The study of the atom in physics class ignited a lifelong passion for learning more about the nature of creation, i.e. the universe.


About the Author

AUTHOR BIO Dan B. McVickar, Ph.D., P.E., grew up in the small town of Sumner in Southeastern Illinois. He attended three universities while majoring in engineering. He worked for four major corporations for the first half of his professional career and then worked in his own consulting engineering corporation for the last half. Retirement at age 65 gave him the free time to pursue a lifelong passion for a better understanding of the physics of the universe and the associated mathematics. Dan married his wife Nancy in 1961. They now live in West Olive, Michigan. They have two children, two grandchildren, and one great grandchild.
