The family was completely working class in its origins, and it is therefore no surprise that, in the time-honoured Scottish tradition, at age 16, he joined the military to escape what would otherwise have been the only alternative of factory employment.
His military career as a photographer in the RAF ended in 1972 when he took advantage of the Scottish educational system and enrolled as a student at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, studying economics to ordinary-degree level, and finally business administration for his honours’ degree. His gratitude for the opportunity given by his native country should be noted. Thereafter, various managerial occupations in the photographic and publishing industries culminated in the forming, together with a close colleague, of a trade publishing company in Singapore. Well travelled in both Europe and Asia/China, he has lived many years in his adopted country, Germany; his wife is a native of this country. Both are very proud grandparents of three grandchildren. Alistair is now retired; the Singapore company continues to flourish at both the Asian and Chinese level, and this, he believes, is mainly due to resourceful and energetic management by the colleague with whom he formed the company.
This is his first book and is very likely to be his only one.ver menos
