Beyond the Temporal Lobe
In the pages of this book, I present to you a remarkable journey that transcends the boundaries of fiction. With but a few exceptions, every word etched on these pages recounts a true story, for it unfolded in the tapestry of my own existence.
Within the Realms of the Emperium, A realm as possible as the breath we draw. I discovered profound wisdom and invaluable knowledge that shaped my very being. Without the transformative experiences and teachings I acquired there, my essence would be but a mere specter. My name is Rick Smith and it is with unwavering purpose that I embark on this literary odyssey.

About the author
Rick Smith
57 books13 followersRick Smith is a prominent Canadian author and environmentalist and Executive Director of Environmental Defence Canada (since 2003).
A biologist by training, Rick completed his doctoral research on an endangered subspecies of freshwater harbour seal in arctic Quebec with a nearby community of Cree hunters. From 1997 to 2002 Rick was Executive Director of the International Fund for Animal Welfare's Canadian office and acting Director of the Fund's UK office for a year. While at the Fund, Rick created high-profile and successful public efforts to end Ontario's spring bear hunt, won a groundbreaking Supreme Court of Canada ruling striking down the patenting of higher life forms and spurred the adoption of Canada's first federal Species At Risk Act.
As Executive Director of Environmental Defence Canada, Rick has established a reputation as one of the country's leading environmental campaigners with efforts such as the high-profile Toxic Nation campaign, which has tested prominent Canadians for measurable levels of pollutants in their blood. Other important new government policies that he has played a leading role in shaping include the Greater Golden Horseshoe Greenbelt, the largest in the world; Ontario's new Endangered Species Act, widely viewed as the most progressive in North America; and Canada's recent decision to become the first jurisdiction in the world to ban the toxic chemical bisphenol A from children's products.
Rick lives in Toronto with his wife Jennifer Story and their two young sons.
