Rob Kitchin

I live in Ireland where I work in a research institute and am a regular media commentator on social and planning issues. I'm the author of four novels, the latest of which is STUMPED, and dozens of short stories. In addition to writing crime fiction, I'm the author or editor of 23 academic books and a 12 volume encyclopedia. I write for three blogs - 'The View from the Blue House' (about crime fiction), 'Ireland After NAMA' (about Ireland and the crisis) and 'The Programmable City' (about software, big data and smart cities).
