The Week According To . . . Prof Norman Fenton

The Week According To . . . Prof Norman Fenton

In this Week's According To, Professor Norman Fenton joins us to examine the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, including Hamas's violations of the ceasefire and the handling of hostage remains. He addresses rising anti-Semitism in London, from street protests to university environments, and critiques selective media coverage of events like the violence in Sudan. The discussion also covers Western funding's role in Gaza and Tommy Robinson's recent reporting from Israel, emphasizing the need for balanced perspectives and community voices.

Professor Norman Fenton is a British mathematician and Emeritus Professor of Risk at Queen Mary University of London, where he specialized in risk assessment, decision-making, and uncertainty modeling using Bayesian networks. His research spans health, law, security, and finance, and he has served as an expert witness in major legal cases. A prolific author, he has published seven books—including the seminal Software Metrics: A Rigorous Approach and, with Martin Neil, Fighting Goliath: The Covid Lockdown Story—along with over 400 peer-reviewed articles. As director of Agena, a firm focused on AI and probabilistic reasoning, Fenton applies his expertise to real-world data analysis. Since 2020, he has been vocal on Covid-related risks and, as a Jewish scholar, addresses issues like the Israel-Hamas conflict and rising anti-Semitism in public discourse.
