More About the Author

In my career as a dentist, I wrote two books on the topic of dental phobia - one for dentists and one for patients. In the 1980s and 1990s I gave many seminars on this as well as on stress management.

While doing one of the presentations in Ireland, I slipped across the Irish Sea to play golf in Scotland where I met a Scottish surgeon who got me interested in writing books on golf. So, bitten by the golf bug and having a penchant for golf history, I wrote six books on golf in Scotland, Ireland, England, and Wales. A mixture of reporting on the courses, the history, a bit of father-son traveling, and a biography on the grand old man of golf, Old Tom Morris. Oddly The Golf Courses of Old Tom Morris is the first book on this influential golfer since 1908 (the year he died). Currently I am working on a book of my favorite courses in the UK and Ireland.

I also have a strong interest in stress management and marathon running, a hobby I took up in 2005. Some may wonder how these two odd fellows crept into the same bed. And so, after having run 44 marathons (through March of 2011), I am starting a book on this topic - an interesting combination of stress management and running marathons. Not your average book indeed.

Since I have retired from dentistry, besides golfing and running those long, long races (which I love dearly), I have become certified in personal training and in stress management consulting (workshops and individual company presentations). In the first wave of the baby boomers, I am also fascinated by the research being done in the 'blue zones' (Healthy at 100).
