I have been the author of the Democracy Science website for the previous fifteen years. This combined scientific research with democratic reform.
While, from my youth, I acknowledge the intellectual debt that I owed a social science degree, while coming to radicly disagree, even as a student, with its out-look and aims.
Whereas from middle age, I acknowledge how much I owed to the friendship of Dorothy Cowlin, largely the subject of my e-book, Dates and Dorothy. This is the second in a projected series of five books of collected verse.
Three of the five may be exclusive to a library-lending scheme.
Two others, including Dates and Dorothy, may be outside that scheme but available on more reading devices, thru Smashwords.
Authors have played a big part in my life.
Years ago, two women independently asked me: Richard, dont you ever read anything but serious books?
But Dorothy was an author who influenced me personly, as well as from the written page. And that makes all the difference.
I have only become a book author myself, on retiring age, starting at stopping time!показать меньше
