On earth as it is in heaven. Bobby wants to show how science will help that manifest. As a small boy he prayed for wisdom. Soon that led to a new physics he began telling people about, that will play a crucial role in bringing this total enlightenment. This concept album story, goes into detail, how Axonda technology, will be guided by what he now calls "Gods Physics." He introduced pairing particle physics, with the spiritual. He feels eventually, it will cause many to believe in God. The Bible states we will know more, could this be part of that. Light In The Attic is proud to distribute this masterpiece. For having no major label behind it, this Axonda album over the years, has received a great deal of press. We'll be utilizing what we feel are some of the most superlative quotes we've seen about any artist. Look under our description of Prayers Of A One Man Band, for more important information. Antonbildern "Something big a true revelation." It's that totally idiosyncratic thang we all are looking for."This is a kind of magic, but it isn't Queen it's much much much better. "But the most astonishing fact is that Brown has an extraordinary voice, one ranging 6octaves. Yes we're accustomed to Diamanda Galis, Sainkho or Ima Sumac, but this man is even superior because this truly transcendent chanting comes directly from his soul, it's not a technique learned at school." Surprisingly genuine and honest." Animal Collective "A true original, he has been a huge influence on many of us that play music." Dusted Magazine, "musical polymath."The nearly 50 homemade instruments placed on racks, gave Bobby the ability to play some of them simultaneously. Turning around to a more percussive rack in the middle of a song. Some pioneering instruments were played by his feet. His 7 varying sized electro acoustic square drums could have been a stadium show in themselves. He had giant metal flutes he could play while drumming. He had a 7 foot bass drone, that influenced John Lazell to build an amazing 14 foot bass beam. Later versions were used in Star Wars sound tracks by others. Possibly the worlds first portable synthesizer, designed by Bobby an built by Mike Wood, was the voice on Axonda. A high quality portable echo, along with the first high quality loop pedal, was built for Bobby by Ed Haas. Bobby didn't use the pedal on this album. The challenge was to leave the last song on side 1, and all of side 2, one man band style. Hands an feet a goin, no overdubbing. There were 311 strings.Leaving a doctorate program at UCLA to train for the Olympics in Santa Barbara, he met John Lazell and Carol Kleyn. John taught Bobby how to make electric pickups to fit any size creation. John was a huge influence on several of Bobbys instruments. Bobby gave Carol a harp an they played separately. His electro acoustic harp, an especially her acoustic, may have launched a 1000 harpists. Without Carols help, an Chuck Plotkin, an Michael Boshears, this album might not be. John Hartmann (elite manager of many famous acts said, "You'll be the next Beatles." He also said "If you'd go out with just a guitar, you'll blow any singer song writer away."Most acts play The Troubadour Hoot, to try getting a record deal. Owner Doug Weston said "it was the best reception ever at the hoot". Kenny Loggins was there an said "It was the most incredible thing I've ever seen. It was like a wave building and building, an the crashing on me." Ram Das at a concert to get Timothy Leary out of jail, said to the audience, "What you just witnessed is the most talented and advanced example, of a new type of music that's beginning to emerge." Alan Ginsberg agreed. Johny Rivers was there an wanted to produce Bobby. One of several record deals Bobby says he stupidly passed up. John Salstone Warner Bros.-"We have a tiger by the tail, but if we put put out Axonda first, we'll have to promote him as the greatest prophet goin." Carl Wilson (BeachBoys) "A first, the only thing new. Many many years ahead of his time." George Winston- "Axonda is one of 2 of my favorite all time albums." All Music-Mark Deming-"Sonic experimenter supreme, of cosmic psych masterpiece Axonda fame." Ed Pinset London's highly respected musicologist, in his Sound Projector Magazine, picked Bobby as one of the "Four American Monsters, The Geniuses Of Avant Garde Music." Andrew Rieger (U of Georgia prof.- and Elf Power/Orange Twin Records "I'm writing a book showing Axonda Physics was before The God Particle, and Philup K. Dicks Valis. Bobbys phenomenal voice is well documented, as well as his many musical inventions that played a part in the evolution of music. But most importantly, I want to show why he's the greatest sci-fi prophet ever."

A Disconnected and Legally Shaky Defense of Racial Preferences
Format: Paperback
While this book raises some thought-provoking points, it ultimately reads like a product of self-righteous elites disconnected from reality and from the American public.
1. Ignores public opinion.
The author never acknowledges that polls consistently show Americans oppose racial preferences in college admissions. Proposition 16—which would have allowed such preferences—was defeated by a wide margin in 2020 in California, one of the nation’s most liberal states. A Brookings poll found that virtually all racial groups, including Black respondents, supported the Supreme Court’s Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA) decision.
2. Starts with a strange premise.
The first chapter claims conservatives will “regret” the SFFA ruling because universities will continue racial preferences covertly. But that sidesteps the real question: why shouldn’t colleges comply with the ruling’s letter and spirit?
3. Offers dubious legal advice.
In Chapter Three, the author—himself a law professor—floats risky ideas for “working around” the Supreme Court’s decision. Many of these suggestions rest on shaky legal ground, as anyone familiar with the Second Circuit’s CACAGNY v. Adams, 116 F.4th 161 (2d Cir. 2024), would recognize.
4. Ignores proportionality and real-world outcomes.
The book argues for “diversity” preferences without asking how much preference is justified. In reality, Asian American applicants face steep penalties. e.g. Stanley Zhong was rejected by five University of California campuses’ Computer Science programs as an in-state applicant—shortly before Google hired him for a full-time, Ph.D.-level software engineering position. Meanwhile, UC San Diego’s own freshman math-placement data show a surge of students—mostly “underrepresented minorities” favored by UC—placed into remedial courses, some testing at a 4th-grade level. It is hard to see how admitting these students is helping them other than allowing some elites to make themselves feel good or get a promotion.
If this book represents what passes for legal scholarship at Yale, the state of American legal education should worry us all.

Adherence to the Rule of Law Must Not Become a Fair Weather Sport
Format: Paperback
The memorable quotation I have used for the title of this review comes from the second chapter (I think) of "The Fall of Affirmative Action." What is actually happening in the United States is that the law is being enforced rigorously against "enemy" institutions such as those of higher learning and not at all against those with power, money, or affinity for same.
The author, an African-American Yale Law professor, devotes his first chapter to the ways in which conservatives might critique the SCOTUS precedent that ended affirmative action and his second to the ways in which liberals might critique it. His most invaluable contribution to the debate is that civil rights can be advocated from an anti-classification standpoint or an anti-subordination standpoint, with anti-subordinationists on both sides of the affirmative action debate. This forced me to take perhaps a harder look at my own beliefs than most books or articles about affirmative action. African-Americans are certainly subordinated in reality by being excluded from higher education but they are subordinated mostly in the minds of white Americans by the fact that a white applicant with the same scores, extracurriculars and admission essays might not get in. That at least is the conclusion I have come to.
"Students for Fair Admissions," the organization that brought down affirmative action before SCOTUS, has now sued those few elite educational institutions that DIDN'T see sharp drops in their African-American enrollment. One strongly suspects that SFFA if not the "Justices" they persuaded will be happy only with a formal quota for African-Americans which is half or less their proportion in the population of the state where the institution is located.

Provocative and fascinating read
Format: Paperback
Justin Driver's excellent book makes the case that conservatives may come to regret the Supreme Court's 2023 decision striking down affirmative action in college admissions. He argues that, rather than simply check a box to indicate their race, the decision will force non-white applicants to "perform their trauma" in application essays in ways that conservatives may find even more corrosive. And affluent non-white candidates--the people conservatives say should not be benefiting from affirmative action--will be the ones best-positioned to take advantage of the opportunity, since they are most equipped to exploit the loopholes and work-arounds that the Roberts decision created. A truly provocative read.

A Powerful and Timely Book about Fairness and Equality in America
Format: Kindle
This book is beautifully written and deeply engaging. As a non-lawyer, I appreciated the author's ability to cut through legal abstraction to reveal what is truly at stake as the Supreme Court turns away from policies designed to expand opportunity. Driver writes, with clarity and conviction, that genuine equality demands more than the pretense that race no longer matters. The result is a powerful and thought-provoking work that reminds us the pursuit of fairness in America remains unfinished.
