Who is Kevin Brown, author of Reflections on Relativity?

[exmarine]

Does anyone on here know who Kevin Brown is? I just bought a marvelous book by him: "Reflections on Relativity" and there is not one word in the book about who he is?

He is a mystery, but his notes are also recommended by Timothy Gowers. http://www.dpmms.cam.ac.uk/~wtg10/

This page gives some slight info about him but apparently not much is known.
