These are Gary Clifford Gibson's political and philosophical essays developing a contemporary historical analysis and synthesis of select American macro-social and international events of the years 1999 through 2002. Global waveform politics were a dominant practice of corporatist elites in the late 20th and early 20th centuries...these essays are from the perspective of an ordinary citizen as an outsider in relation to the inside world of the corporate cognoscenti's axis of propaganda for power. Political events following the 2001 terrorist incidents in New York and Washington D.C. as well as Florida continued to dominate the American arena leading to reaction and conflicts with Afghanistan and Iraq premised to contain terrorism.

The short stories and novellas are among my earliest science fiction works. Writing in Alaska in 1987 I made a couple of trips to Europe while enrolled in an English writing course at the University of Alaska at Juneau. Most of these stories were written at or at least mention Wrangell- a small town 150 miles to the south of the state capitol at Juneau. 140,000 words.

Volume Two continues the developing political analysis and philosophical synthesis of an ordinary American's comprehension of macro-social and international events 1999-2003. The contentious arena of internet free speech continues simultaneously with the affects of the Federal government, the Global Broadcast Media, and Global Neo-Corporatist impacts upon the United States. 553 pages

"Waveform Politics Volume Four; Equilibrium Pattern begins in the aftermath of the Coalition of the Willing?s 2003 war in Iraq continuing to the apocalyptic tsunami of Dec 26, 2004. These essays regard U.S. and world issues from Gary Gibson's point of view as an interested U.S. citizen with a descriptive and prescriptive character. The Waveform Politics series examined social philosophical questions of the relation of an ordinary American citizen to politics: Is it really possible to understand or positively affect complex and interrelated national and international political subjects in real time? The essays were written in a contentious on-line environment and treat a vast survey of public affairs, philosophical, religious and social issues. This author's book was published a few days before the tsunami, which occurred on his birthday. The largest X-Ray stellar event to reach the earth also reached the earth about the 26th of Dec 2004, perhaps accompanied by a gravity wave from the center of the explosive event occurring approximately 50,000 years ago to journey toward the Earth at the speed of light and perhaps eventually help to trigger a tectonic shift causing the giant wave. 697 pages"

The author of these interdisciplinary essays Gary Clifford Gibson wrote this collection on U.S. contemporary issues for the years 2006, 2007 and 2008. The essays are themselves arranged in a convenient chronological order from most recent to earliest. The familiar journal format makes for easy and informative learning time. We discover how important issues of the day are throughput as regularly as water under a bridge, yet are concerned that such superficial treatment of important issues nationally by politicians and broadcast media contribute over-much to the decline of the ecological and economic interests of the people of the United States of America.

Waveform Politics Ten is the final volume of contemporary history essays on empirical and philosophical topics from an ordinary American citizen's point of view. The wave forms in the title refer to the broadcast media's ubiquitous adverse conditioning of U.S. mass political thought. Volume One named 'Fade Into History/ started with essays written in 1999 and later with subsequent volumes viewing a panoramic presentation of concerns from the 9-11 attacks to major sociological restructuring of American moral concerns. From two foreign military engagements lasting most of the first decade of the third millennium to restructuring of the U.S. and Global economy the Waveform Politics series collects the experience of contemporary U.S. history interactively rather than retroactively.

Why did the war to free Iraq from Saddam Hussein occur? Was the conflict a moral war to end a democide during the sanctions era and to build a democracy? The national debate and the author's essays continued through the war and onto the era of a troubled 'peace' and national elections.
