Lars Jaeger, aged 51, studied physics, mathematics, philosophy and history in Bonn and Paris and spent several years researching theoretical physics in the field of quantum field theories and chaos theory. He has lived near Zurich for twenty years, where—as an entrepreneurial thinker—he has built up two companies of his own that use mathematical methods to model global capital markets. At the same time, his enthusiasm for the natural sciences and philosophy has never left him. He is the author of numerous books on the history of natural sciences, modern technologies and their consequences, quantum technologies, etc.
