Edward Fröhlich Haskell (August 24, 1906 – 1990) was a synergic scientist who dedicated his life to the unification of human knowledge into a single discipline.

During his childhood, the family traveled widely throughout Europe (as a result he learned to speak six languages), before returning to the United States.

While hitchhiking during his days as an Oberlin student, Haskell met two wealthy sisters named Reynolds; they were from Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania.

This situation appears to have led Haskell to disdain pursuing his research within the context of conventional employment.

When other adults would tune out, Haskell would spend time with his young nephews and nieces trying to understand why they were so enthusiastic about the music of this new band, the Beatles.

CURE's goal was the synthesis of all knowledge into a single discipline, and they established a body of work called "The Unified Science".
