Oxford Man in Bordeaux

Educated in the US, Japan and at Oxford where I took my doctorate, I have lived in France since Brexit. I have written several books on how that nationalist trauma has transformed the United Kingdom. There are lessons for Trump's America in all of this. In a utopian recoil, I have become a campaigner for Bordeaux to be recognised as a modern urban Bluezone where to live well is to live long. Living well explains my studied interest in French medical care and psychotherapy as well as the science of dieting and reverse aging. I podcast frequently on the food and wine scene in Southwest France. All of this is ancillary to my multi-volume study of political change in East Asia, an endeavour to which I have given fifty years of my life. My métier is thinking outside the box strategically. If you are looking for an intellectual sparring partner, you know where to find me. La niche (not the doghouse), c'est moi.
