  • THE FACE: Stefan Klein, Science Writer
    THE FACE: Stefan Klein, science writer CLOSE-UP Career highlight: The fact that my first big book, The Science of Happiness, really changed how popular books on science are done in my country Career lowlight: Fielding ill-informed questions on talk shows. Favourite scientists: My family. My parents were chemists. My grandmother was one of the first women to graduate chemistry in Austria and my grandfather was the head of a science agency in Austria. Guilty pleasure: Wine. STEFAN Klein's laugh zips down the phone line, links to a telecommunications satellite, downloads to a ground station, then wiggles along the wire to a phone in The Weekend Australian's office. In the process the laughter switches from analog to digital and back to analog, as easily as Klein switches between German and English and from science-speak to casual conversation. Klein is a science writer and he is laughing with delight that he can support himself in such a pleasurable and rarefied field, and do so from home in a trendy part of Berlin, surely one of the trendiest of trendy cities. "Yes, I make a living," he says, confessing he finds this as fascinating as the topics he tackles. Time, chance, happiness, in fact anything that captures his multi-modal mind is converted from fundamental science and analytical philosophy into a ripping read. And this ability to tell a tale packed with scientific discovery is exactly why books such as his latest, The Secret Pulse of Time, are well regarded and on bestseller lists in 24 languages. "Humans are creatures with brains built for processing stories rather than facts," Klein explains.
