    About this ebook

    The development of digital technology since its inception a little over fifty years ago has been extraordinary . To put it mildly, it is now an integral part of so much of our lives. Where would we be without our computers,televisions, and telephones ! And that's only taking a narrow view of the contribution digital technology makes to the cultures of most countries throughout the world. Very few understand the many levels of
    complexity of computers . Most have an operational ability to use computers and that satisfies their needs.
    Some people, however, may enjoy probing a little deeper into this significant aspect of our cultures and this ebook will help them to do that. So, boost your Digital know-how!

    I was brought up in a home that had no books. My hard-working parents were so involved in keeping a roof over our heads and food on the table that there was no money for books and little time for reading. Sounds a bit like a sketch from "Monty Python", doesn't it? Fortunately for me , they saw the benefits that a good education can produce and, over the years, I attended four tertiary institutions to gain academic qualifications, the final one being a Ph.D. I had a period in the British Army ( Intelligence Corps), serving mainly in Europe. I ran a marathon once – and once was enough! I taught in 2 Primary schools and specialised in English in three High schools and three uni's. Publishers in The U.K. , Australia and the U.S.A have been brave enough to publish 14 of my books- all educational - mostly non-fiction, factual stuff. I've also written children's stories, and recently quite a few e-books. I’ve enjoyed it and it's kept me out of mischief!
