"The Dishonest Machine" takes you on a multifaceted quest to clarify many of today's concerns about raising new age children. William C. Augustine was born, the son of a share cropper, in the small town of Marksville, Louisiana on September 17, 1961. He is a Southerner and his passion is rooted in the South where most people would tell you, is God's country. Getting a major education later in his life starting at Walden University in 2011, and later at Saint Leo University to study Psychology in 2012, he saw a need to write about his life's experiences and insights on how children and parents interact with each other. This work is also a clear way for the author to express his profound love for children and to explain the factors that affect their ongoing develop which can have a great effect on the types of people they become in the global society.
