About the Author

John C. Mayer was born in Rochester, New York, in 1930, and grew up in a German immigrant family of eight children (three brothers and four sisters). After graduating from the Rochester Public School System, he attended the Rochester Institute of Technology, earning a both a B.S. and M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering.

As an associate professor, he taught engineering subjects to deaf students at the National Technical Institute at RIT and later worked as a manufacturer's representative. Mayer's writing career began after retirement, in order to provide readers with stories of compassion and commitment that often go unnoticed.

Great book
The narrator possesses a refined and compelling voice, and the author's writing style stimulates the mind. The author uses a tremendous amount of detail to avoid unnecessary/inaccurate generalizations and intentional/unintentional misinterpretations. However, the author executes this feat without allowing the reader to feel lost in mundane facts. I enjoyed the author's use of rhetorical questions to explore the viewpoints of persons who oppose his assertions. Overall, an informative and invigorating read. I highly recommend this book for anyone who has ever asked, "Why did certain people and cultures end up with so much, while others ended up with so little".

Guns, Germa and Steel Audio Version
A great audio adaptation of a great book. I listened to it on my commute to work. I have the actual book, but had no time to sit down and read it. If you are very busy, audio versions of books really work well.
