In Beasts at Bedtime, scientist (and father) Liam Heneghan examines the environmental underpinnings of children's stories.
Liam Heneghan je ekosystémový ekológ, ktorý skúma dopady kyslých dažďov na pôdne potravinové siete a porovnáva rozklad a dynamiku živín v lesných ekosystémoch. Vo svojej práci, ktorá zahŕňa aj štúdium obnovy stredozápadných ekosystémov, skúma zložité vzťahy v prírode. Okrem svojej vedeckej dráhy sa Heneghan venuje aj filozofii a poézii, pričom jeho záujem o detskú literatúru sa rozvinul s odchodom jeho detí z domova.
