Here are scientific and general bibliographies, articles and lecture cruises sorted by year. Activities and publications are listed to 2009 and there's a list of web pages that link to this site. See too the NESTA Fellowship 2003-2007. Read about falling exam standards and haematology, the development of the microscope, forensic science, the control of biohazards, behaviour of protozoa, and dissatisfied scientists. There are publications in journals like New Scientist and Nature, and books like Images of Science, and BSE: The Facts, while Genes and the Fight for Life was first reviewed on the web. New pages include GM Crops and Sensitive Souls and the Future of Food in Britain, America, Italy, Spain and Germany. Work on head lice and photomicrography experiments appears with a new space microscope for the European Space Agency. Other research covers water safety and photoremediation, Brownian Movement as Robert Brown saw it in 1828, a major paper on Leeuwenhoek and a new Leeuwenhoek bibliography of 300 items. There's a profile from California and a review from Illinois, even flying saucer photographs.
See personal and press pictures, and world maps with ports of call. The specialised lists include TV programmes from 'Newsnight' to 'Sky News'. An early newspaper column leads to the books index. There's the Soho magazine Boz, columns in the Mensa Magazine in 1972 and 1994-1996. Listed programmes include Round Britain Quiz and Science Now on radio, with Food for Thought (see also 'food' publications index) and Computer Challenge on TV. The original home page from 1996 is still here, with millennium presentations including Science Hour live on LBC.
The books start with German Secret Weapons and scientific papers are listed for the 1950s (4kb), 1960s (14kb), 1970s (16kb), 1980s (20kb), 1990s (36kb) and 2000s. Some published comments are listed; just click the PRESS button.
