Biographie de l'auteur

Paco Ahlgren has spent the last two decades examining the connections between quantum physics and its implications for modern scientific, economic, financial, and psychological theories, as well as its incontrovertible similarities to eastern philosophies and religions--most notably, Taoism. His first novel, Discipline, is a confluence of these passions. Paco splits his time between his homes in Austin, Texas and Durango, Colorado.
