Brian Bates is the author of six international best-selling books, including The Real Middle-Earth, The Human Face, and The Why of the Actor. He is leading the movement to recover ancient Anglo-Saxon tribal wisdom and to bring it to the forefront of 21st century inspiration. His books and seminars bring together the insights of this tradition with leading edge research in the mind-sciences, to deal with issues facing people in the modern world.

Currently he is Research Director of the Christensen Foundation (Palo Alto) project on recovering the nature-based knowledge of ancient England. He is also Senior Adviser to the Ford Foundation funded project on worldwide indigenous wisdom—‘The Council of Elders’—working closely with tribal elders and medicine people to protect and document their knowledge. Brian was recently honored by these elders, who designated him a ‘wizard’ in recognition of his work in reconstructing the shamanic traditions of the Anglo-Saxons.

Brian is former Chair of Psychology at the University of Sussex, where he teaches his award-winning course in Shamanic Consciousness; a Professor at the University of Brighton; and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts. He lectures internationally, and appears frequently on radio and television.

Born and educated in England, Brian then took degrees at the Universities of California, Berkeley, and Oregon, worked in Behavioral Sciences at Stanford Research Institute and at Cambridge University, England. Today he lives in the countryside of Sussex, in the south of England, in the midst of the landscape featured in The Why of Wyrd.
