Joseph Chiappalone was born in Italy and migrated with his family to Australia in 1952. He obtained a Medical Degree from the University of Melbourne and practiced general medicine for almost 20 years. In 1985 he began writing on philosophy and metaphysics. He has written Gnostic explanations to various areas of knowledge. While many agree with his views, he has been quick to point out that each must find his/her own truths within and he hopes these writings help people on their journey of self realization and philosophical fulfillment. There are no \"sacred cows\" as far as he is concerned.
