Mark Stevenson Biography

Mark is the author of the best-selling "An Optimist’s Tour of the Future," (Penguin/Profile Books) which has been translated into 10 languages and was described by Wired as “a very coherent and entertaining journey through the world of future technology” and by New Scientist as “a refreshing reminder that the future will always belong to the optimists”.

Mark has also written for The Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, Intelligent Life, The Irish Times, The Irish Independent, The Daily Telegraph, and The New Statesman. His key skill is an ability to take complex or abstract concepts and make them understandable by non-specialists without trivializing the subject matter. His second book (also with Profile) about systems innovation, provisionally titled "We do things differently: Travels on the Cutting Edge of Change," will be published in 2015.

Mark is also an occasional comedy writer. His work has been performed on Radio 4 and his play (co-written with Jack Milner) Octopus Soup tours the UK early in 2015.
