Steuart Campbell (born 1937) is a British writer and skeptic who lives in Edinburgh.
Career
Campbell was born in 1937 in Birmingham.[1][2] He trained as an architect and worked as one until the mid-1970s. He obtained a BA in mathematics and science from the Open University in 1983.[2] He wrote The Loch Ness Monster: The Evidence which argues against the existence of the Loch Ness Monster. The book examines eyewitness reports, as well as photos and instrumental evidence.[3] Campbell concluded that the alleged sightings are best explained by logs, otters, ripples, seiches, wakes and hoaxes.[4][5][6][7]
In 1994 Campbell's book The UFO Mystery Solved was published by Explicit. The work was reviewed in the Journal of Meteorology as "a well-researched book" that will assist in dispelling the mysteries surrounding unidentified flying objects.[8] Campbell is a former Christian who later authored a sceptical work on Christianity, The Rise and Fall Of Jesus published in 1996.[9] The book was republished in 2019.[9]
Campbell has written articles for Skeptical Inquirer, The Skeptic magazine and The Scotsman.[10][11][12]
