- Practice over Theory

- Systems over Objects
Filled with incredible case studies and cutting-edge research and philosophies from the MIT Media Lab and beyond, Whiplash will help you adapt and succeed in this unpredictable world.
Jeff Howe, a writer from Maine, began writing seriously when he was 46 years old. He had been writing on the spur of the moment, as inspiration or need arose. From Here to Never, Falling from a Cloud, and The March of the Turtles are his first three works, all poetry collections. Of Trains and Other Things, his fourth book, is his first step into the world of published fiction. Jeff, a Maine native, has worked as an artist, a soldier, a bodyguard, a computer instructor, a spy, a janitor, a graphic designer, and a printer.
He's lived in Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Georgia, among other places. Jeff and his wife, MJ, live in Maine with their two boys, Scott and Ryan.
