The author
William Texier was born in Paris. After studying in France and the United States, he discovered hydroponics in 1985 and became fascinated by this method of cultivation. With his friend Lawrence Brooke, he developed aero-hydroponic systems and conducted research in California. In 1994, he returned to France and created General Hydroponics Europe with his wife, Noucetta Kehdi.
A pioneer in innovation and research in the hydroponics industry, he designed and patented the "biopony" (biological hydroponics) in 2004. With thirty years of experience, he is considered a world reference in the field.
L'Hydroponie pour tous has been translated into half a dozen languages.
