Idan Ben Barak writes science books, usually for children; they’ve been translated into
over twenty languages and won a few awards. He lives in Melbourne with
his wife and their two boys. Sometimes, after they go to bed, he plays his
guitar a bit. He has degrees in microbiology and in the history and philosophy of
science, a diploma in library studies, and a day job that has very little to
do with any of the above.
