MAITLAND, FL—Jim Hart’s new book Monkey Warts and All ($12.99, paperback, 9781498491679; e-book, $6.99, 9781498491686) is a satire on the way that children
have been raised in America in the past several decades, and the educational
system, political system, and worldview they have absorbed. Readers will find
this satire very funny, and it is a unique way of looking at things. If you
enjoyed The Hitch Hikers Guide to the
Galaxy or some of Kurt Vonnegut’s novels, you will like Monkey Warts and All.
Hart says, “There
are several takeaways from this book, but the most important is a good
laugh. Change begins when you can admit
your failings, and a good laugh is a great start.
In addition to
the linkage between our society’s problems and its predominant worldview as
reflected in the educational monopsony and liberal politics, there is a
simplified explanation of the physical universe and time that I wrote for my
former students and others who may be interested.
The relationship
between society’s worldview and faith is explored superficially and hopefully
some may reconsider the role of faith in their lives.”
Jim Hart holds a
science degree from MIT and an MBA from the University of Chicago. Most of his work has been corporate; in
additional to working up the ladder in a multi-national chemical company he has
helped run two small corporations. After
retiring, he was called into a ministry of teaching in public schools and was
first hired to teach high school Math.
He was fired before starting for not having enough math in college
because the state clerk had never heard of MIT, and he didn’t go to a “good
school for math” like the University of Delaware. A week later he was hired to teach Science,
so he has been teaching, if you call it that, ever since. He enjoys teaching children how to play
violin and Bluegrass music and has created music jams and kid’s music programs
and groups.
