Jonas Book — author portrait
About the author

The investigator who became an educator.

For twenty-five years I built my career on a single question: why? Why does a husband kill a wife. Why does a teenager pick up a knife. Why does fear become action.

On September 11, 2001, that question outgrew me. I enrolled, at forty, at a Faculty of Theology — not to find God, but to find an answer my children could live with.

The Jonas Book Educational Series is what I learned, written for the people who refuse to stop asking why.
