Graduation is always a highlight. This was our first ever evening ceremony but was lovely to catch up with colleagues and see the students cross the stage.

My new book is now available for pre-order. If it would be useful for your courses, please ask your library to request a copy *(it is very expensive so not sure anyone will be buying a personal copy)*
