Electronic and print publishing — a media marriage

This occasion turns out to be rather special for a reason not known at the time that Dr Lewis invited me to give this lecture because since then I have begun my new life running Superchannel, the ITV/BBC European satellite television service. This lecture has therefore become a retrospective on electronic publishing looking back over my years at British Telecom and before that at Mills & Allen, where I created one of the first Prestel information providing companies. The title of my lecture is: ‘Electronic and print publishing — a media marriage’. You will note that there is no question mark.
