Geoffrey Hoyle (born 12 January 1941) is an English science fiction writer, who co-wrote with his father, the astronomer Fred Hoyle. About half of Fred Hoyle's science fiction works were co-written with his son.[1]
Biography
He was educated at Bryanston School in Dorset, and then entered Cambridge where he read Economics. After 1964, Hoyle worked in London in the field of modern communications and the film/television industry.[citation needed]
H worked as a scientific advisor to some television series such as Timeslip.[citation needed]
In 2010, his book 2010: Living in the Future was popularised by a blog[2] which compared Hoyle's 38-year-old predictions with the reality of modern life. This led to a Facebook campaign to track down Hoyle and talk to him about his visions.[3]
