An honest bio:

I started writing fantasy and sci-fi when I was six, studied architecture in high school, earned a degree in industrial engineering, completed a PhD in economics history, and then changed direction again to data science, but I never stopped writing.

As a teenager I loved physics, later I became absorbed in evolution, psychology and biology, then economics took over, and since my PhD, the Industrial Revolution and the history of technological progress have become my main intellectual obsession.

I began writing The Mechanical God in 2008, abandoned it, started a successful economics blog, published two economic history books (in Hebrew), and eventually returned to The Mechanical God in 2020.

So yes, consistency and clear purpose ...more
