Peter Russell studied mathematics and theoretical physics at Cambridge University then switched to experimental psychology. He studied meditation and eastern philosophy in India and on his return to the UK took up the first research post ever offered in Britain on the psychology of meditation. In the mid-seventies he joined forces with Tony Buzan and helped teach “Mind Maps” and learning methods to a variety of international organizations and educational institutions.

Peter Russell has been a keynote speaker at many international conferences, in Europe, Japan and the USA. His multi-image shows and videos, The Global Brain and The White Hole in Time have won praise and prizes from around the world. His principal interest is the deeper, spiritual significance of the times we are passing through and has written several books in this area.
