Biography

I worked as a professor in the School of Accounting at the University of South Africa and before that I was a partner in a firm of Chartered Accountants. I wanted to do something totally different, applying my research and practical experience in other areas.

I do not claim to have any special training with regards to the topics I have written about, apart from studying it extensively on my own. For the book on micro-organisms I have relied on my imagination.

In a nut-shell, this book strives to explain the purpose and meaning of numbers and how it connects a main biblical message to the text where the number appears. The bible uses literary techniques to highlight items and to add passion (emotion) and understanding to concepts. Numbers, as part of a literary number technique, appear abundantly throughout the bible.
