Finally, there is an excerpt from my review of the book 'Physics in the 20th Century' by Curt Suplee that I wrote for New Scientist ("The point of physics", New Scientist, 10/4/99) reproduced on the Amazon online bookstore site.

Brochures and PR work:
If you are interested in reading the 'Spotlight' brochures on 'Electronic Technology for Independent Living', 'PET/CT Imaging' and 'Optical Techniques in Medical Imaging' that I have written for the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine please click here.
This page allows you to download the brochures, which are designed to highlight 'new and emerging areas of research in physics and engineering, and discuss their application to the solution of problems in medicine and biology'.
