The Silicon Chip Book
The Silicon Chip Book by Peter Marsh Published by Abacus (1981) First Edition Soft Cover THE MICRO REVOLUTION Will millions of people soon be unemployed as a result of the large-scale applications of the silicon chip? Will nuclear war - and conventional warfare - be imminent now that chips control the complex circuitry of military warheads and communications? Peter Marsh traces the development of computers from the earliest 'dinosaurs' the size of an office to the minute solid-state microprocessor, able to analyse and report in nanoseconds.

Hi @williamnhutton

Loved your forward thinking column here 👇

Quick language query: On the footage I saw, pretty sure Trump said “ass”.

Was that an editorial decision to use the more British “arse”?

Peace Poem: Butterflies In Auschwitz
For Freidl Dicker-Brandeis: A True Teacher Friedl Dicker-Brandeis was an artist and teacher during the Holocaust. Born in 1898 in Vienna, Austria, she was instrumental in introducing innovative art techniques to children, emphasizing self-expression and emotional healing through creativity. She became a leading force in art education at the Theresienstadt (Terezin ghetto), where she taught hundreds of children not only to create art but also to find solace amidst suffering. According to the World Holocaust Center website, Dicker-Brandeis's intuitive creative philopsophy was to: “...unlock and preserve for all the creative spirit as a source of energy to stimulate fantasy and imagination and strengthen children’s ability to judge, appreciate, observe, endure by helping children choose and elaborate their own forms.”

I hope you enjoy this little sliver of poetic light...

On a winter solstice eight years ago
I made a mirror image of my head, heart and soul.
The mirror wasn’t quite as you might expect.
The mirror moves and is a portal to now and then and next.
