Author Information

I am Darwen Cook the author of From Profits To Prosperity . I am 74 years old and retired from a very fulfilling career as an Electrical Engineer. I have a master's degree in EE and CS from Montana State College, Bozeman Montana. I first became interested in Economic Engineering while in college after taking a disappointing course in Econ. 101. That course helped me come to the realization that Economics was a study of endless opinions that had no cohesive guiding principles like the other sciences that I studied and used for engineering. I gave serious consideration to changing my major to Economics but luckily I stayed with my first love Engineering. Instead Economics became my lifelong hobby and I educated myself with everything I wanted to know about Economics over a 52 year period always wondering why there is no Economic Engineering? I wondered why there was always talk about profits but never talk about prosperity! I retired in 2009, bought a sailboat and began sailing throughout the Caribbean. As of November, 2015, I am in Cartagena, Colombia waiting for wind to go to Panama. This lifestyle gave me the time to put a lifetime of economic thoughts down into a book. I now realize that no college educated economist could have or would have dared to write this book. Indeed Humanism and its prosperity paradigm proposed in this book systemizes Economics as a mathematical axiomatic system. Logically such a system can only be defined from outside of Economics at a metaeconomic level. So it must be based on ideology from Mathematics, Science, Engineering and Political Science. Consequently my credentials are well suited for this book about engineering economic prosperity for all even though they may seem strange at first blush. Your credentials are just as appropriate for reading the book! It was intended for high school educated people from all fields. The most pervasive theme in this book is: the economy is yours; you don't need a savior and you don't need permission! Your democracy already entitles you to a democratic economy! All you need to do is stand together and demand it. As of the third edition (2017) I am back in California with my family promoting this book.
