Peter H Sydenham
Born in London in 1937 Peter Sydenham was evacuated to Midhurst in West Sussex. With his family he migrated to Adelaide, South Australia in 1951, where he still lives. His working life began in Australia as an electrical trades apprentice, merging into an academic career in Engineering from 1961. Upon gaining the BE (Hons) and ME at University of Adelaide, with his wife and baby daughter, he moved to Warwick University for a PhD research period in the early 1960s. After a decade as an academic in applied geophysics at the University of New England, NSW, he returned to Adelaide as a Professor of Electronic Engineering. In 1986 he was awarded the DSc, in Engineering, by the University of Warwick. He took early retirement in 1998 to allow him to follow writing and handcrafts. He, and his wife Pat, then spent five pleasant years in the Cotswolds, England. Whilst being a prolific author of academic material Peter has always been attracted to non-fiction writing. His technical hands-on background led him to freelancing popular technical articles in the monthly magazine, Electronic Today International. During his 35 year academic career he has also authored or edited over 20 text and research books, and the usual 100 plus scholarly papers. He was a book-series Editor for John Wiley, in Chichester. Writing far away in Adelaide, Australia, has not been a problem; the Internet, and its email, provide most of what is needed today. He has visited Midhurst many times, the latest being in 2014, 2015 and 2018 to build up research on the Midhurst District during WW2. His interests have covered many handcrafts - with mixed successes. His 1958 electronic base-guitar was a failure; his classic decorated wrought iron balustrades received acclaim - outside of the family! He has constantly been building onto their home to provide for their 6 children who now live in Adelaide, Dubai and Melbourne. Pat and he, now have 11 grandchildren.
