Max Brand believed he could save the United States from self-destruction.

A 60 year old physician, well-versed in how evolution was mostly responsible for human nature, was selected by the elders of his country to live perpetually. Max Brand had been chosen because he manifested and taught ethical behavior based on science, which had helped his country avoid the pitfalls of anger, hatred, and selfishness. Someone like him would help citizens remember what they had learned to save their country. To achieve immortality, he needed to survive an intergalactic trip which insured his telomeres would not age. Because of a misadventure with a wormhole, he ended up landing his craft on planet Earth, 2000 B.C.E., in Mesopotamia. After being assisted by a Hebrew named Terah, he soon met his son, Abram who was intending to lead the Hebrews to God’s promised land. Abram and Max became close. One day, without warning, Max found himself in modern day Lebanon as he was travelling to Canaan. He reasoned that the famous physicist from his planet had not realized relativity could be operational from two different time vantage points in the brain. Max eventually made his way to New York City, and after awhile, realized his journey was really just beginning, as he was appalled to see the ignorance exhibited by the populace as to political behavior which had forgotten the common good. In part because, he knew he would not age, Max knew he had to find a path to re-educate the citizens of a country who once understood what altruism, kindness, and generosity meant. The rest of his story centered on his effort to make that happen and attempt to save The United States from self destruction.

Dr. Zimmerman trained in Internal Medicine and practiced Primary Care Medicine for 47 years. He has had an abiding interest in biology since his teen years which led him towards Evolution and then Evolutionary Psychology. Human nature was the subject of his two prior published works, “The SE Switch”, which tackled the topic of self esteem and “Connection” which dealt with spirituality. “Infinity” is his first effort at fiction. Retired, he and his wife live in South Florida, very much concerned about the future of The United States and our planet.
