Introducing Denyse O’Leary
James Barham
I am happy to announce that Denyse O’Leary has accepted my invitation to make occasional contributions to TheBestSchools blog. As she mentioned in her inaugural post today, Denyse is a journalist, author, and blogger based in Toronto. She has authored or co-authored a number of books, notably By Design or by Chance? (Castle Quay, 2004) and The Spiritual Brain, with Mario Beauregard (HarperOne, 2007). She also runs several blogs, including Post-Darwinist, Mindful Hack, and Uncommon Descent.
Frankly, I don’t know how she does it all, but I am very glad that Denyse has agreed to help us out here at TBS, as well. Her concerns—science, human nature, education, and culture—are ours, and while we may not always see eye to eye, I believe our perspectives should complement each other well.
Denyse’s voice is fresh, funny, and—above all—fearless. I have little doubt you will soon look forward to hearing it as much as I do.
