Professor Wade Allison (born 1941) is a Professor in Physics at Oxford University, researcher and author of his latest book Radiation and Reason - The Impact of Science on a Culture of Fear .Wade Allison was born in 1941 in wartime Britain, the son of a fleet air arm pilot serving with arctic convoys. At school he was not one to follow the crowd nor top of the class but always passing successfully to the next academic stage.At the age of ten he recalls correcting the error of a less-than-competent mathematics master - and being punished as a result, a formative step in the establishment of his measured self-confidence. In 1954 at the age of 13 he was taken ill on a family holiday in France and, anxious for his safety, his parents took him to Geneva, where he recovered quickly. While there he visited the exhibition "Atoms for Peace", held as part of the founding of CERN. This experience started him on a life-long career in physics that took him through a study of physical science in general, to particle physics, and eventually back to his current concern with radiation and what nuclear physics can do for mankind, now and in the future.
