Updates to the biography

Updates can be downloaded via this link


Errors are listed below:


Page 11, last paragraph: the date when Thomas Hounsfield started working for the steel manufacturer was 1894 not 1984.


Page 58, “Cental” should be Central in the caption


Page 123, paragraph 2: the person who described Godfrey as a playing captain rather than a manager was Ian Fairbairn, not Colin Oliver.


Page 138: caption should be “Anthony Strong and Eddie Gowler operating the scanner”


Page 168, paragraph 2: the television station which broadcast the four letter words by the Sex Pistols was Thames Television, not BBC. Ironically, EMI owned a major stake of Thames TV.


Page 226: an important early paper by James Ambrose was accidentally omitted. Ambrose J. “Computerized transverse axial scanning (tomography): Part 2. Clinical application.” British Journal of Radiology, 1973;46;1023-1047
