I am a trained biologist and teacher/lecturer. Although I retrained in computing I still have a great interest in Biology and as a result I like to try and tackle those issues that have a biological and scientific background. As a result a lot of my books are centered around the health benefits of various natural ingredients. My latest book on Lyme disease was a joy to write. There are so many biological ideas involved that it kept my enthusiasm right up to the end. My hobbies also give me topics to write about and as a result of my keen interest in food and cooking I have produced a kebab recipe book and one on pasta dough recipes. On the music front I am very much interested in guitars and this gave rise to my book on setting up a bass guitar. I like traveling too but as yet I haven't managed to write about this aspect of my interests. This I am sure will be one for the future.
