About the Book
From
Newton, Einstein to GOD is a poetic memoir that follows the amazing life of
Leong Ying, beginning with his birth into poverty in 1961 in the former British
colony of Singapore. After a short time, his family is able to make their way
to England. There, as a child with prophetic abilities and a penchant for
daydreaming, Ying turns away from his spirituality and toward the logic of
science, ultimately earning a graduate degree in nuclear physics. Shortly
thereafter, Ying immigrates to the United States and, for a time, chases what he
sees as the declining American dream.
In this new land, the duality of
Ying’s life comes into focus, and he uses science – which he’d formerly applied
to deny the existence of God – to reveal the “ultimate godly secrets.” In doing
so, he discovers the Twin Universe, a grand cosmic cycle that will lead us into
a new phase, one that will have a dramatic influence on the existence and
evolution of humankind and our humanity to come.
Through his unique writing style,
Ying’s philosophy and ideas come vividly to life. Interspersed with photographs
from his youth and adulthood, each page is a unique dance between words and
images that will inspire and enlighten.
Bio
Dr. Ying was born in Asia, educated in
Europe, and now resides and works in the U.S. He is a marathoner who has run
across all seven continents, a nuclear physicist by academic qualification, a
patented inventor and a skilled engineer in the fields of cryogenics,
superconductivity and radiation technologies. He is also a science fiction
author, stage director and poet.
Praise
“Dr. Leong Ying possesses the rare storyteller's
ability to make virtually any subject both lucid and compelling. Though this is
a personal memoir about his family and their struggle with poverty, behind it
is a bigger story concerning the cultural divide in Singapore, Great Britain
and the United States. Facing many obstacles, Dr. Ying finally achieved his
dream of becoming a Nuclear Scientist and remained determined to discover a new
theory about the Universe. This book ‘From Newton, Einstein to GOD’ is a case
in point.”

“Leong has been involved in fundraising events for
my Shoe4Africa organization including joining our team for the New York marathon.
The stories of his spiritual awakening are a most enthralling tale, and one
that I myself have recognized through my own near-death experience. His poetic
words are not just beautiful but have significant meanings that will resonate
powerfully with the readers.”
-Toby Tanser,
founder of Shoe4Africa
“Dr. Leong Ying’s groundbreaking work to expand the
consciousness of the planet is unsurpassed. I have personally known him for
over a decade and during that time he has continued to persevere with his
passion for writing. Having deep insights into the religious, spiritual and
scientific arcs that continue to inspire great thinkers to dig more deeply into
the meaning of life, Dr. Ying’s views and insights must be taken seriously. I
have believed in his theories for some time now. Having written a best-selling
memoir about my life that is in production as a feature film, written by
Terence Winter (Wolf of Wall Street, Boardwalk Empire, The Sopranos), I have
been personally touched by Dr. Ying’s work, his beliefs and way of looking at
the world, very deeply. I commend his commitment and the completion of this
long awaited study of an important aspect of his purpose.”
-Tod Volpe
“Dr. Ying’s second book “From Newton, Einstein, to
God” is going to be another milestone of his life’s journey in the quest to
find the true sense of one’s life in the duality space - the twin universes.
This poetic family memoir is the mirror reflecting his inner and outer life -
the past period and the future that lay ahead, which is vividly reflected in
this book.”
