WITH KNOWLEDGE AND VIRTUE: To Save the Earth from Global Warming and Nuclear War
Themi Demas earned his Ph.D. in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from the University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana. He has worked for more than forty years at advanced technology companies and has held key positions at Hughes Electronics/Raytheon and Atmel Corporation.
He was an active member of the Hellenic University Club until he moved to Silicon Valley in 1995.

WITH KNOWLEDGE AND VIRTUE is the product of Themi's extensive study of philosophy and history.
The author offers a detailed proposal for combating climate change, building a more robust economy by creating jobs, eliminating oil imports, stabilizing energy prices, and cutting back on pollution and its detrimental effects on society--all by using clean, renewable energy.
He also tackles reducing the threat of nuclear war, which will require us to tame the savageness of man. This must be done via international institutions, cooperation, and a commitment to shared values.
Tackle two of the world's greatest problems--global warming and the threat of nuclear war--and consider how to address overpopulation, world hunger, and other problems along the way With Knowledge and Virtue.
