The Grounding Wire: An Electrical Engineer's Guide to Parenting, Power, and Parallel Processing
For those who learn that the most important connections can’t be soldered.
Gary Volt is a professional electrical engineer and an amateur father. He lives by spreadsheets, optimization, and the laws of physics. But when his eight-year-old daughter, Tesla, starts diagnosing ground loops in the refrigerator before breakfast—and his five-year-old son, Maxwell, collects ordinary rocks and insists they can see—Gary realizes his biggest challenge isn’t grid stability. It’s parenting.
The Grounding Wire is a warm, witty, and unexpectedly moving novel about a family wired differently. Through science fair disasters, sibling short circuits, and birthday-party protocols, Gary learns that love doesn’t follow Ohm’s law. Some connections can’t be calculated. And the most important circuits aren’t made of copper—they’re made of chaos, pancakes, and the courage to be weird together.
Perfect for fans of Wonder, The Rosie Project, and anyone who has ever tried to measure the unmeasurable—this book will remind you that the best systems aren’t perfect. They’re just connected.
Key themes: Parenting, neurodiversity, family life, love as a design parameter, and the beauty of good-enough.
