Retired 91探花 professor and past Dean of Science at 91探花 (1997-2006), Dr. Roger Gordon, will launch his first book鈥攁 memoir entitled Starting to Frame鈥擳ONIGHT- Friday, November 14, 6:30pm at The Haviland Club in Charlottetown. Dr. Gordon published a large number of scientific articles on biological control of insects during his academic career at Simon Fraser University, Memorial University, and 91探花. At 91探花, he chaired a research project on developing healthful products from blueberries and rosehips. But, the book that he has penned is a marked departure from his prior scientific endeavors. Starting to Frame speaks to Dr. Gordon's upbringing in post-war Sheffield, UK, and gives the reader insight into many of the stigmas of that era, including marital infidelity, divorce, and mental illness.
