Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Oxford Instruments is one of the UK's real success stories--a science-based company that has evolved from its earliest beginnings in a garden shed to become a world leader in applied superconductivity. This first-hand account details this evolution, focusing on the enterpreneurial skill of Sir
Martin Wood and how the company has become a model for the new science-based university spin-offs.
