Although the integrated circuit was not patented until 1959, its essential features were outlined some seven years earlier by the British engineer G.W.A. Dummer. In a recent interview Dummer told of the origins of his visionary pronouncement, and recalled his involvement in the early days of the UK electronic component industry

Wind turbines of capacity less than 100 kW have been much neglected for power production and energy capture in the UK. Other countries have facilities for testing and development, and have encouraged successful manufacturing programmes. The 1983 UK Energy Act may, however, lead to significant changes
