He has postgraduate qualifications in Medicine, Education and Theology. For most of his childhood he lived with his family in rural areas in the Waikato and Northland, New Zealand, his father being sole charge teacher of a series of small country schools. This may explain his deep empathy with rural New Zealand.
The Place We Call Our Home is not David’s first foray into print. He has had over 120 scientific papers and book chapters published in international peer reviewed medical, educational and theological journals, and in 2013 was lead author of the book: In the Beginning: A history of the Medical Unit, Auckland Hospital and the first thirty years of the Department of Medicine in the University of Auckland. Because most of his previous writing has been of a scientific or educational nature, it has given David a lot of pleasure to develop this collection of his poetry to the point of publication.view less
