Brian Martin

Formal training in physics, with a PhD from Sydney University. Worked for ten years at the Australian National University as applied mathematician, in areas including stratospheric modeling, astrophysics, numerical methods, and wind power in electricity grids. Simultaneously studied the political and sociological aspects of science and became involved in the radical science movement, the anti-uranium and the peace movement. Since 1986 Dr. Martin is senior lecturer in the Department of Science and Technology Studies at the University of Wollongong. Since that time his research has been in largely three areas: power in science, social defence and the role of information in free societies. He is a specialist in nonviolent community resistance, dissent and struggle as alternative defence methods, and a leading member of Whistleblowers Australia, an organisation that seeks to make it possible to speak out without reprisal about corruption, dangers to the public, environmental and other vital social issues.

Brian Martin became TFF adviser in 1985.
