Michael Doherty, a retired physics teacher, ex-military, businessman and writer on the ancient Chinese philosophy the I-Ching brings a comforting and clear understanding of how to navigate life's changes in this often strangely fascinating world. In his deeply calming English voice he knows how to simplify topics that may seem difficult to understand and bridge the gap between science and philosophy. With an open mind to the transformations taking place worldwide, he brings a little wisdom, humour and lightness to otherwise darker subjects.
