Keeping Up with Time by Anisur Rahman
The thoughts of distinguished scientist Anisur Rahman on a variety of subjects including science religion and politics
Anisur Rahman was born in 1947, in British India, just before the partition and independence of India, in the region which became East Pakistan and then Bangladesh in 1971. He started his career as a lecturer at the Department of Applied Physics, University of Dhaka. He came to England in 1970 as a Commonwealth Scholar to pursue higher studies in physics. After receiving his doctoral degree, he pursued post-doctoral research at the Inorganic Chemistry Department of Oxford University. Dr Rahman moved from academic research into commercial nuclear power generation work and then to defence nuclear work. Most of his research publications were security related and therefore classified. After retiring from the Ministry of Defence in 2003, Dr Rahman worked as a Nuclear Safety Consultant (without any restriction on publications) and offered services to a number of British organisations and the European Commission. He was the Editor-in-Chief of a report for the European Commission under the 5th Framework Programme on 'Institutional, Legal and Regulatory Aspects; Licensing and Decommissioning Plan; Radiological Protection and Industrial Safety', to harmonise nuclear regulations across the EU. He wrote 'Decommissioning and Radioactive Waste Management', which is a graduate and post-graduate textbook in many British and European universities. The book has been translated into Chinese by the Chinese Atomic Energy Commission. Dr Rahman also worked as a Contributing Editor for 'Energy and Power' magazine in Bangladesh for over five years. The present book, 'Keeping up with Time', stems from the author's contributions to various publications in Britain and abroad over a number of years.
