About the author
Rod Martin Jr.
37 books8 followersRod Martin has been a bestselling author (Climate Basics), a college professor, a software engineer with a summa cum laude degree, and a Hollywood artist with screen credit.
Martin downplays the fact that his own IQ resides in the top 1%, citing imagination and humility as far more important qualities in effective intelligence.
He has written more than 20 books in his own pen names (Carl Martin for fiction) on a broad range of topics, including science, philosophy, spirituality, self-help, history, politics and the basis of ancient myths. Additionally, he has ghostwritten more than 60 books for his clients on topics including artificial intelligence, interplanetary space missions, geological periods (Jurassic, Cretaceous and others), numerous self-help books (time management, self-confidence building, Law of Attraction, solving procrastination, converting bad habits into good ones), several books on religion and spirituality (Kundalini Yoga, Buddhism, angels), and nearly a dozen books on ancient myth and legend (Roman, Greek, Norse, Egyptian, Celtic).
Having worked for Bank of America, Control Data, Ceridian Payroll Services, Global Database Marketing, and IPRO Tech, Martin has contributed to the business world with educational materials, training seminars, marketing collateral and even one business book on the fashion industry. He has also created business software as well as his own 3D astronomy package, “Stars in the NeighborHood.”
His unique ability to see patterns in nature and society has allowed him to discover many breakthrough ideas, including the fact that nature “invented” tank circuits billions of years before humans did -- a fact he realized while studying electronic engineering in the 1970s. Tank circuits allow for the broadcast and receiving of radio signals; atoms have done this since the beginning of physical matter, because they are naturally both coils and capacitors.
Martin has also discovered 3 items in science, each from a different scientific discipline, which suggest that an Atlantis-like event occurred 9620 BC -- right when Plato’s lost island empire supposedly succumbed to the sea. Upon further study in several branches of science, Martin discovered a broad array of evidence supporting Plato’s story. Details may be found in his book, Mission: Atlantis.
In the realm of spirituality and religion, Martin discovered several items of wisdom hidden in the Bible, revealing God’s purpose for Noah’s Flood, the target of the Flood, and a biblical timeline compatible with those of science. Details may be found in his book, The Bible’s Hidden Wisdom: God’s Reason for Noah’s Flood.
Also in spirituality, Martin has discovered four traits of God that allow for miracles to happen. This is the basis for how prayer works and why it seems to some that prayers frequently don’t work, when they actually do. Details may be found in his books, The Art of Forgiveness, The Science of Miracles, and Proof of God.
In the realm of climate science, Martin readily admits that he had bought into the lies of Al Gore and the UN’s IPCC. Caring about our world is always a good thing, but getting the facts wrong about our world is not recommended. When he discovered that Al Gore and he had been horribly wrong, Martin revisited the basics of climate science and wrote his #1 weather bestseller, Climate Basics: Nothing to Fear, still only 99 cents as an ebook.
