John K. Inglis, B.Sc., B.A., Dip. Ed., M.Inst. Biol., was a British biologist, writer, and Further and Higher Education lecturer in Oxford, England. ==Life== Educated in the private sector, Nottingham High School and The Becket, preparatory and senior schools, Inglis left school with insufficient qualifications for University entry. He took employment for four years as a technician in chemistry and physics laboratories, whilst studying at the technical college in order to gain acceptable examinations for University entry. Whilst at University, he lived in rooms within bicycling distance of college. With no financial backing from divorced parents, both living in Africa, he supported his college studies by night-portering at a local YMCA hostel, chemistry teaching at High Pavement Grammar school, and by working as a hormones research technician in an industrial hormones research department. At University, John gained an Arts degree (psychology and philosophy), and a Natural Sciences degree (animal physiology and biochemistry). A post-graduate diploma in Educational Psychology and Learning was a further one year of full-time study. John was in his late twenties when he searched for his first full-time employment. John joined the new Oxford Further Education College as one of the founding science faculty members. This college evolved out of a John Brookes earlier foundation, eventually becoming a Polytechnic and later Oxford Brookes University. The biomedical students were drawn from local employers in hospitals and University research laboratories, as well as full-time students seeking University entry qualifications. In the USA, nearby to Chicago, John tutored anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, and health, to undergraduates at College of Lake County. In Canada, nearby to Toronto, John tutored undergraduates in anatomy, physiology, and diet therapy, at Durham College. His textbook work in Canada was in receipt of the financial `Cocking Award` given annually by a Commonwealth teachers' association for publication work. John produced 12 textbooks, of which the following are at present in publication: "A Textbook of Human Biology", "Introduction to Laboratory Animal Science and Technology", "Science for Hairdressing Students", and "Oxbook" a handbook for foreign students in Oxford. Until his recent death, he lived in Oxford, with his Dresden-born wife, Ulrike. His brother, Dr. Douglas B. Inglis, is a consultant chemist, and former university lecturer, living near Cardiff in Wales. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John K. Inglis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
