People and Parliament offers a fresh and rounded perspective on the English Revolution of the 1640s.

Some are interested in the different sounds that occur in languages. Some are more concerned with pathological speech. Others are trying to help people speak a particular form of English. Still others are looking for ways to make computers talk more intelligibly or to get omputers to recognize speech.

Most people begin to draw as soon as they can hold a crayon and then continue drawing enthusiastically throughout childhood. Some people keep drawing right into adulthood, while others wander off in different directions for a while and then rediscover drawing later in life.

Our philosophy is simple: If you know how to see and make comparisons, you have what it takes to draw.
