He has spent almost the whole of his teaching career at the University of Surrey. Since retirement from teaching he has been an Honorary Senior Research Fellow at that Institution. He is the author of some ninety research papers and two books, most related in some way to latin squares. He is a Foundation Fellow of the Institute of Combinatorics and their Applications and a member of the Editorial Board of \Quasigroups and Related Systems"". He was the _x000C_rst secretary of the British Combinatorial Committee and continued to serve in that capacity for 8 years. Also, he was one of the organizers of the 1991 British Combinatorial Conference and editor of its Proceedings. He is probably best known internationally as one of the authors of \Latin Squares and their Applications"" of which the present book is a re-written and updated new edition.

Reviews for Latin Squares and their Applications

...an in-depth summary of the extensive research about Latin Squares. I now have a possible new research direction that can provide many questions for undergraduates and the book will be a good resource in the future. --MAA Reviews
