I am a retired science lecturer with over thirty years experience in teaching and researching at the university level. During this time, I have investigated many paranormal phenomena applying scientific methodology and become convinced, to use Shakespeare's eloquent words "there is more in heaven and earth than dreamt of in (a materialistic sceptics philosophy). I have published many scientific papers on a range of biological topics and written a text book on Cell Biology. As well as being a keen amateur astronomer, I have delivered many undergraduate courses in Cosmology and Astronomy at British and American universities. Hopefully these experience will help me to guarantee the accuracy of the science contents of my blocks. I have also publish science fiction stories in which I have explored the philosophical importance of many scientific discoveries. Besides my research, my extensive worldwide travel, particularly in the Far East, have hopefully helped me investigate many examples of the paranormal. I am hoping visitors to my new website will leave critical comments on my articles and blogs. Above all, I hope my readers will share my fascination with the paranormal.
