Sven started his career in the electronics industry almost 40 years ago working for LM Ericsson in Stockholm. For the first 15 years Sven worked as an electronic component test engineer testing everything from 7400-series devices to microprocessors like the MC6800 and MC68000. In 1990, he moved into ASIC design, starting with the Motorola H4C (0.35µm) and now working with today's 28nm processes. Over the course of the last few years, Sven started to work with programmable devices. Today, he works as an ASIC/FPGA designer at his own consulting company, Zoocad Consulting, in Stockholm, Sweden.
David Ashton is not entirely sure what he is. He was born in London, England. He was raised, trained, and worked in Rhodesia (now known as Zimbabwe) and now lives in Australia. Based on this, he describes himself as a Pom-Rhodie-Zimbo-Aussie. Workwise, things are much the same. He has run electronics labs and managed telecommunications centers. He has run his own communications business, and he is now working as a telecom specialist keeping a large communications network up and running. In his own words: "I'm a jack of all trades and, yes, I admit that I'm the master of none, but I kind of like it that way because it makes it difficult to get bored."

He graduated from Brunel University in England with a first class honors degree in electrical and electronic engineering.
Jennifer Baljko writes the Logical Link blog on EBN. She started speaking supply-chain lingo in 1997 when she joined CMP Media LLC's technology-focused editorial team. Although life has spun her around the world and moved her freelance writing career in all sorts of different directions since, she still wonders how chips, components and computers get where they're supposed to be when they're supposed to get there. She can be contacted at email@example.com. If you want to see what else she's been up to, visit www.jenniferbaljko.com, or follow her on Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter.

Although life has spun her around the world and moved her freelance writing career in all sorts of different directions since, she still wonders how chips, components and computers get where they're supposed to be when they're supposed to get there. Here are several questions Jennifer has been chewing on lately: Will electronics manufacturers ever get forecasts right? What comes after supply chain efficiency? And, really, can we talk about supply chain management without using acronyms? She can be contacted at email@example.com.

Tom is an amazingly inept electrical engineer; an overpaid technician, really. He cut his teeth in the USAF working on the electronics of such modern day aircraft as the F-4 and the B-52. During this time, he figured out that he liked electronics and went on to Kollij in Southern Illinois, where he only barely graduated. He went on from there to set a shining example to other engineers – of what not to do. Definitely, he's not the brightest bulb in an elevator that doesn't go all the way up, and talking to him is often like beating your head on a dead horse. He recognizes that he's no good at engineering, but likes it anyway. Be forewarned in conversations with him, though: He loves mixing metaphors.

Born and raised in what was then Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), Aubrey Kagan completed his electrical engineering degree at the Technion, Israel Institute of Technology, and obtained an MBA at the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa. He immediately started working in electronics and was fortunate enough to be around as microprocessors made their first inroads into industry. He was initially involved with designing controllers for industry and mines, with projects encompassing coffee packaging machines, railroad communication controllers, hydrological data monitors, automatic calorimeters, and diamond sorters. The isolation of South Africa (geographically, economically, and later politically) allowed him to gain a wide range of experiences with many aspects of the industry, including analog and digital circuit design, the use of PCs (including the use of spreadsheets) to gather data, and the early use of CAD. Aubrey now lives in Canada. Here he originally worked on the specifications for the Canadarm 2 (the remote control arm on the International Space Station), but he is now involved with far less grandiose projects. He is Engineering Manager at Emphatec, a Toronto-based design house of industrial control interfaces, signal conditioners, and switch-mode power supplies. Aside from brief forays into the i80960, i8096, and IM6100, all of his experience has been on 8-bit micros – including Intel (8048, 8051, 8080, 8085), RCA (1802), Zilog (Z80, Z8), PIC (16Cxxx), Scenix (SX18), TI (TMS7000, MSP430 – 16 bits!), and Cypress (PSoC). His specialty lies in blending the linear with the digital hardware and then processing in software. Aubrey has written several technical articles for Circuit Cellar and has contributed several design ideas to EDN and Electronic Design as well as an application note for Cypress Microsystems. He has also made a few contributions to Max Maxfield's "How It Was" series and Max/Brian Bailey's "Travel Nightmare" series. He is the author of Excel by Example: A Microsoft Excel Cookbook for Electronics Engineers.

Michael Conrad Mannering has had a succession of nicknames since school days, the latest being Crusty. Describing himself as a dilettante, gentleman researcher in advanced electronics, he is -- in fact -- a retired Electronics Assurance Engineer, with over 35 years served in the London Underground (the Tube). He started life in electronics as a 12-year-old playing with the first red and blue spot germanium transistors to hit the amateur market. A lot of jobs later, he landed the post of electronics technician at the London Underground Research Laboratories. It was here that he learned to work with analog, digital, and microprocessors. During these years, he traveled to the dark side and became heavily involved in software development, but -- with the wisdom of old age -- he has returned to the only true electronics path. Michael is mildly dyslexic and has found academic study highly challenging; luckily, he has had a lot of good tutors, great practical facilities, and is a voracious reader of anything, so -- with the advent of the word processor -- the problems of dyslexia are kept at bay. Last but not least, he trains dragons and fights evil geniuses (on the Xbox).

Exterminating Angel Press Believes…
…it's time to take a new approach. Time to take our own lives back from the intermediary 'experts.' Time to change the old, tired stories for new, living ones. Time to look at our world in a different way. Whether they're about cooking, comic books, or Chinese goddesses—about fairy tales or poems of everyday life— our books do that. It's reveling in our everyday life. Making a living, not a killing. Reorganizing our lives on a human scale. Dreaming how we want our lives and our world to be. We're named for the classic film by Luis Buñuel. And like that film, we say, "Just open the door."
