Mick van Schothorst

Mick (Michiel) was born in the Netherlands, the son of a protestant minister. At an early age, he realised that his father’s religion did not leave sufficient freedom of thinking, and he started to seek answers to existential questions elsewhere. After his study of veterinary medicine, he specialized in microbiology at the National Institute of Public Health. He obtained his Ph.D. at the University of Utrecht. In 1980, he was engaged by a global food company in Switzerland. He worked in many professional organisations, conducted many training courses and has taught at the University of Wageningen, the Netherlands. he authored and co-authored over 150 scientific publications including several books. After his retirement, he got more time to continue his quest for understanding how “things between heaven and earth” work through reading and shamanic journeying. The results are condensed in the following five books:

- Why we are what we are: Something Worthwhile to Think about to Create a "We-World".

- We, Homo Apprentis: An Evolutionary Approach to Understand our Being.

- A Simple Approach to Creating a “We-World”.

- Of Microbes and Man. Their Physical and Spiritual Interconnectedness

- The Cosmic "We-World", a Worldview Worth Contemplating
