Steven Wolfe<\/a> has written a new book titled The Obligation<\/a><\/em><\/strong>. Here is the description:<\/p>\n

An Adventure of Space and Evolution<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Obligation\u00a0is a modern parable about a young Capitol Hill staffer who discovers that the seasoned congressman he works for is far from a typical politician. An obsession over a mysterious inscription on a plaque in the congressman\u2019s office sparks the young aide\u2019s initiation into a worldview that will challenge everything he thought he knew about space, evolution and humanity.<\/p>\n

Under the guidance of the congressman, the protagonist is propelled on a journey of mind and spirit that takes him from Washington to California to Arizona and back to the floor of the House of Representatives. Along the way, he meets six extraordinary individuals who help him understand the secret of the Obligation. His emerging consciousness of the Obligation puts him at odds with the woman he loves, an environmentalist who will ultimately provide a critical piece of the Obligation puzzle.<\/p>\n

The journey is a gauntlet of emotions, ideas and insights that\u00a0lead the young aide to not only understand the reason why we yearn to explore outer space, but also see the larger responsibility we have to each other and to the planet that gave us life. Once exposed to the full depth of meaning about the Obligation, his life is transformed forever.\u00a0\u00a0Read the first chapter now.<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
