CCBB: Laurence Browne - The Many Faces of Coincidence

Laurence Brown was born in the UK in 1951 to parents living in the
Far East and spent much of my childhood there, though at the age of
nine I was sent to boarding school in England. After completing
secondary school in 1969 (Radley College, Oxford), I came to
Australia where I have lived much of my life since, working mainly
as a teacher of English as a second language. I am married with two
daughters and live in suburban Brisbane. I enjoy travelling,
bushwalking, skiing, and reading widely.

As far as my inner life is concerned, I have been interested ever
since my early twenties in the possibility of an inner truth and
have been a regular meditator since the 1970s. In 2009, feeling at
a dead end with teaching, I applied to study full time for a PhD in
philosophy at the University of Queensland. My focus has been on
coincidences and I was awarded a PhD degree in 2014. The title of
the thesis is Examining Coincidences: towards an integrated
approach.

I am now officially retired and have been fairly painstakingly
engaged in converting my thesis into book form, which was released
in August this year by the publisher Imprint Academic as The Many
Faces of Coincidence. I've also been developing and giving
presentations based on its chapters, which I find very
enjoyable.
