Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. This is a Pinnacle Award Recipient and a silver medalist in the Readers' Favorites awards, Christian Living. Blessed are the engineers who give us some answers to life's little perplexities.Mister B's jaunty calculating rhythm offers timely subject matter. A tender little laugh, a swept floor in reticence, a literary window into the home of a surviving physicist and his caregiver.Mister B proves he could care less about being politically correct. That's not his style.Can these multi-generational housemates discover why they still matter? Find out now, for a celebration of full life.PRAISE FOR MISTER B: Mister B springs from earthbound corners of immigration and poverty in rope-tied-baggy pants, Seeing as his newest design is to live forever, how will life unfold when a chauffeur-cook decides to move into the home of this self-centered, 98-Year-Old Rocket Scientist. will she really lend aid?"A wonderful book, brimming with humor and spirituality. The characters are lovingly drawn and Byk provides her readers with a day-by-day recounting of how her life intersects with the indefatigable Mister B, whose memory seems almost photographic even at the age of 98! The book is enlivened by photographs from early-to-middle twentieth century America. A very worthwhile multi-generational read." -Jan Kalickion"Byk fully constructs Mr. B, from the Rhode Island coastal awe in his voice to his penchant for mustard on peeled egg. In these small, perfectly executed moments, Byk brings her fascinating family to life for readers with warm and genuinely funny wit." - KIRKUS REVIEWA jaunty & terrific confessional of unusual love. If you liked Driving With Miss Daisy, or No Highway in the Sky, Mister B's survival tactics may also help you stay above the curve. - Verified ReaderBorn in 1916, to a Polish-speaking mother, physicist Joseph Byk began his early schooling in rope-tied-baggy-pants-poverty. He was every teachers' dreaded student, however, he aspired to design vehicles that defy gravity. Joseph B IS the loveable, bumbling scientist portrayed in Nevil Shute's romantic character, Mr. Honey, (Jimmy Stewart) in the movie, No Highway in the Sky.For curiosity seekers of aerospace and structural science, how did it all start? Here is the story of a forgotten stress engineer whose philosophy, calculations, and outspoken opinions saved many lives. Greatest Generation story lovers, World War II hounds, and family members caring for aging parents, think of Mister B as a national treasure.A real-time memoir with a caregiver, Mr.B causes unsuspecting readers to become mindful of things that matter in many shades of life. As this materials analyst steps into a stress manufacturing field, his story encompasses his part in WWII and the cold war race to the moon against Russia. Joseph Byk stress tests reconnaissance planes and helped to design structural aspects of the space shuttle Gemini, the first moon landing gear, and the beginnings of Google Earth.Hidden figures of NASA include not only brilliant women of color but also this underprivileged son of a Polish immigrant mother who pulled himself up by his bootstraps.Armchair philosophers and would-be scientists appreciate Mister B's wry interactions and shrewd, pointed conversation, but is there more to what meets the eye? A tender little laugh, a swept floor in reticence, a literary window into the home of a surviving physicist and his caregiver. Mister B could care less about being politically correct. That's not his style. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.…
