Truly a book unlike any other, Simple Physics successfully marries science and spirituality, physics and the Bible.

In 1988, Manhattan U.S. Attorney Rudy Giuliani brought a massive civil racketeering suit against the leadership of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (IBT), at the time possibly the most corrupt union in the world.
