It's the Seasonal Reposting Competition! Repost this over the weekend, and on Sunday one lucky person will win a signed copy of one of my books. For you or the #crossword addict in your life: 50 fiendish @theguardian.com #puzzles and all the stories behind them:
boatmancryptics.co.uk/crossword-bo...
Boatman - the first 50 reportedly makes a great present or holiday read, exemplified by this image of the book opened to show the story behind the Shipping Forecast puzzle, on display on Brighton beach. Reviewing Boatman - the first 50, Alan Connor (The Guardian's crossword editor and the brains behind many of BBC2’s quiz programs) says: "This is one to savour. Boatman's puzzles are witty and ingenious. It is an extraordinary pleasure to read how his unique mind works. The first 50 is a book I never knew I needed in my life. Gift it to yourself and to the word-lovers in yours". Hugh Stephenson (Alan’s predecessor at The Guardian) says: "This is a unique book of crosswords" and Henry Morris: "a Boatman crossword is like a theme park. Each daunting line is a rollercoaster ... He scares you witless. But you can't wait to do it all over again". Boatman - the second 50 contains another 50 puzzles from The Guardian, with five bonus puzzles previously only available online and including puzzles, solutions and the ideas and stories behind them, exemplified by this image of the book opened to show one of the stories, which is accompanied by a picture of a large cow. Reviewing Boatman - the second 50, Gyles Brandreth says: "If you want a fiendish crossword, you want the best - which means you want Boatman, because he is the best" and Brian Bilston: "Cracking crosswords - each puzzle a delightful daily workout for the brain and a welcome tonic for the soul".

🧪Cancer fact of the day: physicists and engineers are essential to modern medicine, and enable the use of just about every imaging/treatment device in cancer radiotherapy.

However, as we're usually behind the scenes, patients (and even colleagues) sometimes don't know we exist 😅!
DID YOU KNOW? It takes at least two physicists to work out a safe treatment plan for your radiotherapy treatment. DID YOU KNOW? Academic scientists transform physics and engineering principles into leading edge healthcare research. DID YOU KNOW? Teams of engineers and scientists check every machine hospitals to keep them working properly. DID YOU KNOW? Engineers and physicists in industry work together to develop the latest generation of radiotherapy treatment machines. DID YOU KNOW? A technologist is needed to perform some of the scans doctors use for your diagnosis. DID YOU KNOW? Every piece of imaging equipment using x-rays is tested by a scientist to make sure it is safe. DID YOU KNOW? Rehabilitation engineers design high-tech ways to make patients more comfortable and independent. Without physics and engineering there would be no modern healthcare, Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine @ipemnew

The ultra-fast cancer treatments which could replace conventional radiotherapy
A pioneering new treatment promises to tackle a wider range of cancers, with fewer side-effects than conventional radiotherapy. It also takes less than a second.
