I had written the first version of this book during the early 1990s, then soon afterwords, had copyright registered the manuscript before discontinuing the project. Then recently, I've revised the project. Before and during my writing the first version, I had been reading and probing other books of, and related to, its subject and category, and had begun again to continue this practice when I had revised the project. My background is in the computer electronics field, from which I'm now retired. Since childhood, I've always had certain talents and aptitudes, such as in art and drawing, and music. Well, in the book, there is more information about myself.
