Mieke Mosmuller studied medicine at the University of Amsterdam and practiced as a doctor for over twenty-five years. Working with illness and death raised questions in her about the nature of life. Since 1994 she has been writing about the spiritualization of intelligence. Her first book, Seek the Light that Rises in the West, lays the philosophical foundation for her later novels and books on spirituality such as Posthumanism and Singularity. With the well-known Dutch comic, cabaret artist and poet Toon Hermans, she wrote Just God. She has published more than sixty books, most of which have been translated in German, some also in English, Danish and French. She has given lectures and workshops in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Denmark, Switzerland and France.
