Carl Honoré

Carl Honoré (2008) Carl Honoré (born 29 December 1967 in Scotland) is a Canadian journalist who wrote the internationally best-selling book ''In Praise of Slow'' (2004) about the Slow Movement.

In 2008, he came out with a new book, ''Under Pressure: Rescuing Our Children from the Culture of Hyper-Parenting'', which promotes a more relaxed and more hands-off technique for raising and educating children: slow parenting.

Honoré was born in Scotland, but considers Edmonton his hometown. After he graduated from the University of Edinburgh with a degree in History and Italian, he worked with street children in Brazil, which inspired him to take up journalism. Since 1991, he has reported from all over Europe and South America, spending three years as a correspondent in Buenos Aires. His work has appeared in publications including the ''Economist'', ''Observer'', ''American Way'', ''National Post'', ''Globe and Mail'', ''Houston Chronicle'', and the ''Miami Herald''. He has appeared on ''Fox and Friends'' and ''Dennis Miller'' and was the subject of a double-page spread in ''Newsweek''. He currently works and lives in London with his wife, Miranda France, and their two children. Provided by Wikipedia
