We make the mistake of assuming that technology is always great. No matter what, it always improves the human condition. We think that even if a piece of technology has a downside, then those downsides can be managed or are 'negligible.' Our entire understanding of 'progress' lies on technology because of how integral we think it is to improving our state.However, this novel will make you re-imagine this common frame. Through an action-packed story, filled with adventure, intrigue, romance, and tragedy, you will see that technology is not always great. Even when it is promising, it has a tendency to bring more problems with it than solutions. It is not just a matter of ethical use; there might genuinely be some things that are best left un-invented. This story will help readers understand a new idea of 'progress, ' one that encourages the reader to improve their human condition by improving themselves. It is not that technology is inherently bad, just be sure you are not a slave to it. Rise above it, and learn when to reject it. Once you do that, you will have truly liberated yourself from the confines of our highly tech-oriented world, and you will grant yourself the chance to choose for yourself.This book follows the life of Martin Clement an electronics tech who discovers a way to recover sounds and voices from the past. Collaborating with a team he put together, they embark on building such a device. As luck would have it, they have no luck. Then an accident leads the way to success. After proving it's functionality, they file for a patent, which opens a series of unforeseen and sometimes deadly circumstances.
