Troubled Legacy

By: Phil Moncur

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Simon Fenton, disillusioned ex-vicar and mild eccentric, is in the process of getting over the untimely death of his wife when he hears news of a mysterious legacy which also involves an alternative explanation about how his father, a gunner in the RAF Regiment, came to be shot in Northern Ireland during the Troubles. Natalie Roberson, a freelance high class call girl and aspiring airline pilot, is suborned to seduce him and help his adversaries cover up the story. Things go badly wrong and a corrupt detective is accidently killed. Simon and Natalie are forced to go on the run, hotly pursued by both the legitimate forces of law and order and darker forces under the direction of a senior politician who has everything to lose.

Easy Grace

By: Phil Moncur

What if President Kennedy had ordered the invasion of Cuba in 1962? ...What if the Soviet Union had retaliated not with an all out nuclear attack, but with a series of regional wars on the NATO fringes?...What if, with Norway under Soviet occupation, the UK faced a second Battle of Britain? Easy Grace tells the story through the eyes of Tom Wharton, a young hastily trained fighter pilot who finds himself flying obsolescent Hawker Hunters on a front line squadron. As he prepares to do battle with his own fears and the might of the Soviet Air Force, Tom meets Nurse Helen Bain and, as they journey together from adolescence into adulthood under the shadow of armageddon, neither the course of the war in the air nor the path to true love run smoothly.

Imagination + Technology

By: Phil Turner

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Imagination + Technology

By: Phil Turner

Imagination is highly valued and sought-after, yet elusive and ill-defined. Definitions range from narrowly cognitive accounts to those which endow imagination with world-making powers. Imagination underpins our ability to speculate about the future and to re-experience the past. The everyday functioning of society relies on being able to imagine the perspectives of others; and our sense of who we are depends on the stories our imaginations create. Our soaring imaginations have taken us to the moon and allowed Einstein to race a light beam. Unsurprisingly, imagination underlies every aspect of human-computer interaction, from the earliest conceptual sketches, through the realistic possibilities portrayed variously in well-known tools as scenarios and storyboards, through to the wilder shores of design fictions. Yet, curiously, imagination is very rarely addressed directly in the design and HCI literature (and is wholly missing from virtual reality). This book addresses this gap in our accounts of how we imagine, conceptualise, design and use digital technologies. Drawing on many years of practical and academic experience in human computer-interaction, together with a wide range of material from psychology, design, cognitive science and HCI, seasoned with a little philosophy and anthropology, Imagination + Technology first considers imagination itself and the principal farthings of a new account. Later chapters discuss the role of imagination in the design, aesthetics, use and experience of digital technologies before the concluding chapter focusses on the provocative nature of imagination. The book will be stimulating reading for anyone working in the field of interactive technology and related areas, whether academics, students or practitioners.
