“Unbalanced” was released on Amazon and recently won a Maxy Award, an honor for indie and self-published books. The book also is partially available for free on the author’s substack.

Yellow Heights describes himself as a “former climate researcher, software engineer, investment manager, and high school math teacher.” He also is a first-generation immigrant from China and father of two. He writes under a penname and requested anonymity due to concerns about political and job discrimination due to his views.
