Welcome to my website, which now incorporates the Rational
Optimist website. I post columns, reviews, articles, blogs and
links here, and you can find details about me and my books.
Supporting Rational Optimism
I am giving roughly half of the advance royalty received for my
book to two charities (here and here) that are helping
those in need, especially in Africa, to trade, farm and innovate.
If you like The Rational Optimist and are feeling
generous, please take a look at their work.
I also support small local charitable causes in
south-east Northumberland.
