Magnus Dei

John O’Loughlin is a Galway-born author who was brought from Ireland to England by his mother as a young boy and grew up in Hampshire and Surrey, where he attended a variety of state schools. Most of his adult life has been spent at different addresses in the London Borough of Haringey, to which he moved from Surrey in 1974, and all but a few of his books have been written there, the majority of which, like this one, are of an intensely philosophical not to say metaphysical and even ideological nature.
