Barczak developed the beginnings of his passion for geology and minerals while studying in one of the most important schools of modern Silesia, Poland - the Carolinum high school in Nysa. The first rector of this school was Christoph Scheiner, a world-famous Jesuit scholar; a mathematician and an astronomer whose observations contributed to the discovery of sunspots. Nobel laureate and American biochemist Konrad Bloch also graduated from the school. The ancestors of astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus, the creator of the heliocentric system, also lived near the town of Nysa. It was in this environment that the author became interested in biological sciences, chemistry, geography, and physics. At that time in the field of geography, a work was already created concerning the area of the nearby foothills at the junction of the Polish and Czech mountains, which was awarded in a regional competition of high school students. The author began the next period of education in the field of engineering and economics at the University of Economics in Wrocław, majoring in chemistry. During his studies, he had the opportunity to visit places rich in minerals in Lower Silesia and the Czech Republic. Since high school, he has also been collecting mineralogical specimens. He graduated from subsequent studies in Warsaw in the field of journalism and political science before he studied at the Warsaw University of Technology in the field of engineering.Initially, the author worked as a journalist prior to starting his business, while constantly deepening his knowledge about minerals. Having his own company allowed him to develop a collection of minerals and fossils.In 2017, Piotr M. Barczak obtained a Ph.D. in economics in the field of management in the Warsaw School of Economics. During this period, as part of his business activity, he began researching amber and plant extracts. His need to find answers to the mystery of "living resin" was supported by funding from the European Union, which, through the National Center for Research and Development in Warsaw, approved the project entitled: "Development of Innovative Bio-nutraceuticals Based on Gypsywort and Natural Sources of Iodine". Piotr M. Barczak is the author of several works on amber, including the brochure: "Baltic Amber. Elixir of Immortality. Succinite Solution for Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia. Scientific Study" and "Amber. Elixir of Immortality: Health Properties of Compounds with Pharmacological Action". Many years of interest in amber and minerals sparked an impulse to write a book about Baltic amber. This is a difficult topic from a scientific point of view. It requires in-depth knowledge of many fields of science, including geology, mineralogy, botany, paleobotany, pharmacy, and history.vizualizați mai puține
