Anthony A. Goodman

Anthony A. Goodman

Anthony A. Goodman is currently an Adjunct Professor of Medicine in the Medical Sciences and the Microbiology departments at Montana State University in the United States. He was a general surgeon for nearly thirty years, specializing in the surgical treatment of cancer. Apart from lecturer in a series of 32 video lectures, Understanding Human Anatomy and Physiology, produced by The Teaching Company, he is also a historical novelist.

In the summer of 1982, he visited Rhodes with his daughter and, while watching the Sound and Light Show on the battlements of the fortress one night, became fascinated by the conflicts that raged among the three great monotheisms of the era—Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Over the next twenty years, he collected articles and historical materials, and formulated the ideas that led him to write "The Shadow of God" (2002). Goodman currently divides his time between teaching surgical anatomy at the medical school, The Biology of Human Cancer to undergraduates in microbiology and writing historical fiction. He is currently researching and writing the sequel to "The Shadow of God", which follows the Knights of St. John to their new home on the island of Malta, and the rise of the Ottoman Empire to its apogee under Suleiman the Magnificent through its ultimate decline and fall under the reign of his heirs.
