He is the author of twenty books including the international best-seller, Stephen Hawking: A Life In Science (with John Gribbin).

His latest is Acid Tongues and Tranquil Dreamers-a study of scientific rivalry from Newton to Gates published in 2001. He lives in Kent, England with his wife and three children.
