Alternative homepage at http://www.meD8.info/PeterT/ and some of my published work is available from The Knowledge Network (http://kn.open.ac.uk/public/ then search for Twining). I set up this online CV cos I wanted to experiment with what happens if your CV can be edited by anybody and/or there is an easy way for anyone to add a comment re your work/publications (eg via the discussion page) - scary stuff.
If you have worked with me or know my work then please feel free to go to the discussion page and add a peer-review comment - or heck, just update my CV which is now looking a bit out of date!
If you want to 'have a chat' then send me a tweet @PeterT
