My PhD was from Cambridge University. My goals here are to provide free, quality explorations of history, philosophy, art, and even subjects I find interesting.

I don't take myself too seriously, though I always try to take each subject seriously. I also do not expect everyone to agree with me on everything. That is the fun of history: a lot to argue over!
