Simon started out life as a researcher: his PhD looked at causes of childhood leukeamia, and his scientific training and background stays with him on anything he does - he's strong on empirical evidence and what's proven to be effective for 'normal' people. He's also worked as a fire-eater, a teacher, an author and a lighting designer for dance companies! His last book (Presentation Genius) became a top ten best seller. And yes, that is as cool as it sounds - walking into WHSmith and seeing that is definitely a buzz!
