Said Hany is a retired paediatrician who was born in Ghana to Lebanese parents and who spent his life so far living and working as a paediatrician in several places across the world. His profession took him to Egypt, Lebanon, the deserts of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, England, Scotland, Ireland, Portugal, Spain, Belgium, Germany and the USA.
The history of Lebanon, his homeland, with its multiple and diverse cultures has always interested and influenced him. The fascinating history of the Phoenicians, especially Pythagoras, whose father was a Phoenician from Sidon, plus the fact that Lebanon was the birthplace of the alphabet, instigated a lifelong interest in the development and advancement of civilizations. Being a crossroad between East and West, Lebanon’s history has been affected by a multitude of factors, cultures and religions. As well as writing poetry, his interests are wide and varied, including travel and photography, and remain drawn to the alphabet and numbers. Through his refreshed journey with numbers, he discovered patterns in some number sequences which have not been mentioned or reported before. Such numbers are the Fibonacci numbers, the Lucas numbers, cube numbers, prime numbers, and decimal expansion of the Golden Ratio and the Plastic Constant.
Hany, as he is known by his friends and colleagues, enriches his life through his family, travel, photography, research, writing...and staying in touch with friends and life...
