Ajani Buhari is an impoverished seven-year-old adoptee anchored in his own troubles when he is thrown right into the middle of a vindictive plot to teach an arrogant, pompous, xenophobic billionaire a lesson. Unfortunately, this lesson will come by way of his own emotionally scarred, big-hearted, and cocaine-addicted daughter. Unbeknown to them all, Ajani possesses a phenomenon never discovered in any human being that has ever walked on the earth. Ajani's abnormality is haphazardly discovered by school nurse Sharon Adams, who was subsequently given a death sentence because of the onslaught of an extremely aggressive and malignant form of cancer. After Sharon aids Ajani with an injury after a classroom donnybrook, her life is turned upside down when she goes in for her scheduled chemo therapy session but the oncologist can find no trace of the cancer. No oncologist in the world can make any professional sense of her remarkable and completely unheard of recovery sparking a federal investigation the like no other. The United States government will stop at nothing to find, contain, and control what they don't quite yet understand but threatens the world's pharmaceutical industry ultimately altering humanity forever.

This book is based on an in-depth filmed conversation between Howard Burton and former mathematical physicist and writer Freeman Dyson, who was one of the most celebrated polymaths of our age. Freeman Dyson had his academic home for more than 60 years at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. He has reshaped thinking in fields from math to astrophysics to medicine, while pondering nuclear-propelled spaceships designed to transport human colonists to distant planets. During this extensive conversation Freeman looks back on his simultaneously transformative careers in theoretical physics, mathematics, biology, rocket ship design, nuclear disarmament and writing.
