The Vallian Trilogy: An Inventive Life. Part I: The Engineer (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781461055150)

Larry Wahl is a writer, artist, geometer, and inventor, having filed, per se, and received a patent on the 4th dimension (Wahl #5982347: The Vallian Geometric Hexagon Opting Symbolic Tesseract). At 85+, he is an expert on his own life, and the insights and lessons acquired from living it. He continues to self-educate using all media available, and like his heroes (Buckminster Fuller, Einstein, etc.) finds his non-formal learning style supports his creativity. His teacher for filing and defending his patent was David Pressman's "Patent it Yourself." He has been writing since high school; this is his first book. Other publications include The Elephant in the Room; The Tesseract: Path Through Optical Illusions; Manifesto I; and excerpts from his books on his websites. Larry has been married to his 4th wife, Sharon (editor and contributor to Vallian Trilogy) for 53 years; they have made their home in Menlo Park, California for 32 years.
