XNOR: PRIONS

A HISTORICAL FICTION NOVEL

XNOR: Prions explores a provocative analogy between biology, cognition, and artificial intelligence through the concept of “prions”—misfolded proteins that corrupt healthy systems and trigger cascading failure. Extending this idea to minds and societies, the novel suggests that ideas can behave like prions: most build understanding, but some distort perception, spread harmful beliefs, and reshape individuals and cultures in destructive ways, echoing the rise of “prion people” whose influence can turn stability into collapse.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Anand Bliss, born into a Caucasian family, traveled the world as a software developer and businessman. Exposure to the rich and powerful, the desperately poor, the dirty and forgotten, the brilliantly intelligent, and the vacuous and foolish of our world left deep impressions. 

Living in an Indian Gurukul or Ashram synthesized this experience, enabling the XNOR series of books to emerge. XNOR: Prions is the first. The intriguing story will continue to unfold.
