David Stansfield is an Arabic scholar, who has lived in many parts of the Middle East with different Arab families. He graduated from Durham University with First Class Honors (summa cum laude) in Arabic Studies, and continued studying the language and the culture at the universities of Cambridge, Paris and Toronto, whereupon he was recruited by MI6, the British equivalent of the CIA. David later went on to write and produce the 14-part TVOntario/Encyclopedia Britannica television series: "The Middle East," which was selected for consideration for an Academy Award in the best educational documentary category. In addition, he wrote and produced over 400 television scripts (documentary, drama, comedy, animation) on many different subjects for TVOntario in Canada (both in English and French), NHK in Japan, and the Public Broadcasting Service, the Discovery Channel, and Time-Life in the U.S. This is his eleventh book. His other titles are: Origins: A History of Canada, One Last Great Wickedness, The Seventh Coming, The Man Who Murdered Time, Tale Nothing For Granted, Blood, Got a Couple of Minutes?, Attack at Noon, Highway Robbery and A Season of Monsters.
