Peter GriffithsAuthor Peter Griffiths was born in rural Queensland, Australia, in 1945. The world he lives in now has changed enormously since then, and two of his memories help give context to some of the changes taking place since his early years. The first was i 1957, when he went outside at night to watch the pinpoint of light that was the sputnik satellite travel across the sky. The second was in 1969 while serving in Vietnam and listening to the broadcast of the first moon landing. Peter has condensed seventy-five years of life experience and observation into his debut book. Over his working life, he has lived and worked in most states of Australia and for many years owned an export business operating throughout Papua New Guinea and the South Pacific. During these years he met and worked with a diverse mix of interesting colourful and sometimes unique characters. He spent time in different and interesting places and had exposure to a wide range of ideas and cultures. Through his interactions and experiences over the years, he became increasingly aware that there are still many aspects of our natural world that we do not understand. That awareness, and the freedom of retirement, has allowed him to spend the time reviewing these years and insights, and attempt to put them into a logical context. Read More Read Less
