Books by Andrew S. Townsend
Andrew Townsend had degrees in chemical engineering and safety management. He spent most of his active working life with Esso Petroleum as a construction engineer and project manager in petro-chemical complexes. Townsend also carried out in-house research at Esso and later ran his own health and safety consultancy and acted as a safety auditor. Medical retirement brought a premature end to his active career in industry. He returned to study and research, subsequently being offered the opportunity to undertake a research PhD at Southampton University School of Management. Andrew Townsend's particular approach to blending experience and learning was applied and tested during his time as a member of a national ski coaching team and whilst crewing racing yachts.
